• Cannot share media to the xbox 360.

  Well, I have window vista pc, connected to a router and then connected to the xbox. Xbox can't find PCs. I went through all the trouble I can find, including measures of fire open all ports associated with the WMP network sharing Service. Everytime I open WMP it says that the network share is disabled, I go through the steps to enable it, and it shows me the xbox, I allow the media to the device, but still cannot connect. When I look in services.msc in Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service is said, he was arrested, I click on start and it gives me an error 1068: the dependency service or group could start. I'm fairly certain that if I can get this service started my media sharing will work... But I don't know how to do... Any help would be appreciated.

  This year last my computer has ceased to connect to xbox, I started to use tversity and that worked very well, but now it does not work yet. :(

  Hi Seemonkey08,

  Check first if the Discovery SSDP and UPnP device host are started. If not started, then try to start these services first and try to start Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service.

  1. log in to your computer as an administrator.

  2. click on start and then click Run.

  3. in the run box, type services.msc.

  4 in Services, find "SSDP and UPnP services device host ", and then verify that the status column is started.

  5. If the services are stopped, double-click services. A window should appear.

  6. in this window, make sure the startup type is "automatic".

  7. click on the Start button in this window to start the services.

  8. check the State of Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service and start the services

  9. close the windows services and see if you can view your media on Xbox.

  Hope this information is useful.

• Sansa Fuze does not work with the Xbox 360?

  I know that the console is capable of playing a MP3 player through it, I could do my job as Creative Zen. I don't understan why it does not work with the "rocket", the interface looks more simple on the surface of things. And I'm sure it doesn't because I don't have a HARD drive for my Xbox, it was working fine before.

  The reson I am, I wanted to know because I wanted to know the other ways of playing my rocket while listening. the kool on my expirimentation thing is I found that the Xbox will charge my rocket when it is off and I can listen at the same time. I also found that my Playstaion 2 will work also in this copacity all-in-on.

  Basically the Auto setting works well with the XBox.  Select settings > USBMode > MTP or MSC.

  With PSG, you can even play content protected by DRM rockets (IE Rhapsody) on Xbox.

  I also have the problem of my windows premium 7, refusing to talk to my xbox 360...< not="" the="" controller's..="" it="" talks="" to="" them="" fine="">

  But the Xbox itself on the other side ot the network...

  So please don't tell me to install controller drivers...

  Really do not do...

  Yes, I've read hundreds of times people have asked this very question.

  To always have the microlimp people answer with «just install the controller driver and everything'll be fine...»  You want a pill with this useless response? »

  My very expensive windows 7 gaming machine speaks to everything perfectly. Everything there is certified to work with windows... Nothing is no name made in China...

  And apparently the xbox slim is certified...

  Then why they will not speak to each other...

  The windows updates did not have a pilot.

  I tried the controller driver... It did not help at all...

  So please don't just tell me to install the controller driver...

  And maybe think about why we shouldn't just scrap xbox and get a media center that works?

  Hell I already used my Roku as well as the xbox...

• E3000: uPnP works only with the Xbox 360

  Hi all

  So I just set up my new E3000, upgrade a WRT54G.  UPnP has worked a lot on this router and my last three routers before that.  Xbox never required to configure anything - I can prove simply by exchanging routers and set among the 'old' instead of the E3000.

  However, the E3000 (Firmware Version: 1.0.02) doesn't work with uPnP.  Connectivity Xbox test comes back and says that my NAT type is "moderate."  More stuff works fine, but I want to get all the workers.  I worked with a tech Linksys which was very helpful and got to 'Open' NAT setting triggered port forwarding.

  I am happy to have my problem solved, but confused why uPnP does not work?  I mean, it was easy for me to configure the port forwarding, but for my less technical friends, do I simply cannot recommend this router because it can't do basic uPnP?

  Is there an another configuration change, I did that may have upset the uPnP?

  Thank you!

  -Scott

  In case this help someone else:

  In recent months, I've used a static mapping for XBOX live.  I've recently updated the firmware on my router to 1.04 and still was having similar problems with uPnP.  So I continued to use the static mappings.  One day my IP for the Xbox has changed and I'm frustrated.

  I tried one thing before giving up on this router:

  (1) Held down the reset for 30 seconds button

  (2) while still holding down, unplugged the router for 30 seconds

  (3) while now down, reconnected and continued operating for 30 seconds

  This is a complete reset of the router.  I then re-directed the Cisco connect software (which has been also updated recently).  I've reconfigured my router as I wanted.

  Now, Xbox Live uPnP works!

• Problem with the Xbox 360 and WRT54GS

  Once from time to time, my Xbox suddenly will refuse to connect to the internet, even if he had worked for a few minutes to an hour. I'm going through all troubleshooting he tells me to do with the connection test, the MTU thing has always been higher than the minimum, even when the thing, it is not.

  Nevermind, I figured it.

• Questions of WRT54GL with the XBOX 360 Modern Warfare 2 chat (even with open NAT)

  Hello

  I read a few posts on the subject, but can't seem to make it work.  I tried port forwarding, UPnP and DMZ on their own or at the time and the best I could do is get a "open NAT" in modern warfare, allowing me to play online.  However, I do hear not others when you play online.  I can tell they speaking by looking at the icon of speaker beside their name between games, but cannot hear them...  I can hear people in my private chat or part without problem.

  Can you guys help me?  It's hard to read dominance without being able to communicate with his teammates.

  Oh gawd...  I feel like a noob...  It turns out it wasn't my router settings at all.  Somehow, I got my 'privacy settings' in XBOX Live set to "Discuss with friends only" or something similar.  I now opened it at all and it works fine.

• The xbox 360 Media Player no longer plays music after that I upgraded my CPU. Error message: media sharing service has been terminated

  Original title: the xbox 360 Media Player plays more music after I upgraded my CPU

  I have Vista 64 SP2.  The service runs for 5 seconds and then I get the message that she stopped. He was works well for years (my Xbox 360 sharing), I'm guessing he stopped a few weeks ago after I put in a slightly faster processor. I watched a some tech posted and tried to run the program which seeks the corrupted system files, but the only files that it could not pay had to do with the sidebar Windows. I have removed and put back my media extender, I thought that it worked because I've seen (from my xbox) miniature images, videos and music counting upward, as they have been added and I could see them. But if I take one he freezes for a few seconds and then says the media sharing service took end (or something like that). Then, I go to my PC and see that it stops. I can restart, but it only lasts for 5 to 10 seconds.

  I also say a post about deleting files in C:\Program Data\Microsoft\DRM, but I have all the files in there. Just a server folder empty.

• Windows Media Center extender on my XBOX works initially, but not after reboot of my XBOX. Error: Failed to connect to the Xbox 360 could not connect to the windows Media Center computer.

  It's VERY odd and very annoying!

  I set up my laptop next to my Xbox 360 with an Ethernet cable directly connecting the laptop to the XBOX, and the laptop is on our wireless network. The XBOX has access to the internet (shared through the laptop), and when I test the PC connection and the connection XBOX Live sound fine to all.

  So I'll try to set up Windows Media Center, it works great! I "Add Extender", put the code to 8 digits. It passes through the installation, all works, no problems and WMC opens on the XBOX, I can go into my library, watch movies etc... works great!

  However! As soon as I turn my XBOX off and back on, it will fail to connect to the WMC.

  He says his 'find Windows Media Center PC' which seems to work fine, it goes to the ' Windows Media Center loading screen "contact...". ", and after about 10 seconds, I get an error"failed to connect the Xbox 360 could not connect to windows Media Center PC. Make sure that the PC is turned on and connected to the network.

  I tried to configure the Extender repeatedly, whenever it works fine until I restart the XBOX... :/ - and its strange cause I still the internet connection (shared through the laptop) after turning on the XBOX, its really JUST Media Center which is screwing around.

  She continues to keep trying to connect then repeatedly fails.

  If I wanted to, I could re-configuration the WMC Extender EVERY TIME turn off the Xbox, which works the first time without fault, but that's all just stupid.

  I can't really understand what is happening here... any help would be appreciated.

  I am running Windows 7 Home Premium.  I try to add the extender for the Xbox 360 to Windows Media Center. When I go to Media Center tasks and add an Extender, Media Center crashes immediately after I enter my Xbox console 8-digit code and click Next.  I have disabled the firewall of the router and firewall windows without success.  Restart the computer and the Xbox has not helped either.  Any suggestions that I can not yet put in place the Extender?

  Hi Eric,.

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum!

  According to the description of the problem, it seems that you have trouble connecting Xbox 360 extender for Windows Media Center.

  I will certainly help you with this issue.

  Here are some methods that you can try in order to solve the problem.

  Method 1: Disable the antivirus software and make sure.
