• 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.

  Not sure if this will help. Here and all over the web search will show that you mixed results.

  Try this download. I have a new Macbook Pro El Capitan 10.11.3 running. Just installed this to use my old Xbox 360 wired controllers USB to play Lego games. Despite the mixed reviews, this seems to have worked perfectly and actually gives you an ability to customize the controller.

  Al https://github.com/360Controller/360Controller/releases/tag/v0.15_beta5_unoffici

  NOTES:

  (1) it is Beta version 5; newer than all the other versions of this utility I saw reviewed about the feature. You may need a different version because your version of iOS, but I'm not an expert here.

  (2) once installed and the computer restarts, you will find the utility as a new icon in the system preferences (the gear in your dock icon, probably), not applications, utilities, etc.

  ·          This all the steps you've tried?

• Qosmio G20-139: use the laptop screen to play on the Xbox 360

  Hi I have a question about the monitor function with the G20-139,

  I have an xbox 360 and would like to know if there is a way to use laptops screen to play on the 360 in high definition or composite mode using the monitor function. With the laptop came a composite cable at one end and a sort of headphone 3.5 mm at the other.

  I read the manual about the case and it does not work.

  Any help would be appreciated thanks

  Hello

  The port monitor - where you can connect with the composite cable can be used to display video from your digital camcorder, video game or VCR on the internal LCD screen. It can be used as a line-in port to allow the connection of a stereo device for audio input.

  In my opinion, you also need this cable to connect the Xbox to the Qosmio with composite cable plug-in software component.

  Then to commence the Qosmio with the Monitor-in button that starts the Qosmio player.

  In your case the Qosmio must replace TV. This means that you can use on your Qosmio Video-IN ports only. Read s manuals to see which software component video ports plug-in Qosmio has and for that use a straight cable.

  All that s. You can't simply say I have this cable and you want to use it. You should see what cable can be used with Qosmio first and get the right one.

  I got this HP TouchSmart for over 2 years. This question comes to mind. Can you connect an Xbox 360 to a HP TouchSmart 520-1030? I looked and looked and found nothing useful on the web.

  Specifications are: HP TouchSmart 520-1030
  Intel Core i3-2120
  4 GB of ram

  No HDMI

  Hello again ScreenNameHere,

  Thank you for responding to my message asking for additional information. The only way I can see to connect your HP TouchSmart 520-1030 Desktop PC would be the use of a USB HDMI adapter. I am also including the IDT High Definition Audio Driver Update for your computer, the USB connection will not have the same sound quality and you want to make sure that you have up-to-date drivers to get the best sound, you can leave the connection.

  Please re-post with the results of this post. Thank you for bringing This problem on the HP Forums. Enjoy your day!
