Xbox 360 scan windows media center for the new music?

I just added some new music to my windows media center and the music does not appear on my xbox 360. is there a way to synchronize?

Hi nwills,

Ideally, the Xbox 360 should automatically scan if new music is added to Windows Media Center. However, you can also manually synchronize as follows.

a: you can connect the Xbox. The Xbox Dashboard, select 'My Xbox', then select 'Windows Media Center' to receive the eight-digit code. This code allows your Xbox to recognize your media player on your computer.

b. you can set up Windows Media Center on your PC. Click on the "tasks" and select "Add Extender". A screen will appear asking you to enter the eight digit of your Xbox 360 code.

c. play music on your Xbox. Select 'Windows Media Center' in the menu 'My Xbox' and start playing music.

Hope the helps of information. Please post back and we do know.

  • Xbox 360 and Windows Media Center interfere with the operation of the Vista computer.

    Since the implementation of an Xbox 360 for the family to use, turning power switch and return to the dashboard caused Windows Media Center on the laptop family to turn on automatically, which, in some cases, interrupts programs and blocks computer. Sometimes the computer will be same turns on automatically when the XBox is turned on.

    I've done everything I can think of to stop the problem, including 'disconnect' XBox WMC in the "Uninstall" the XBox and the XBox settings in the settings of WMC. I do not anticipate using WMC in the near future, I just want to stop this crazy to happen.

    Thanks in advance for any help and please ask if you need more information on my problem.

    Hello ebduhamel,

    1. what type of connection you have between the computer and the Xbox, it's a cable or a wireless connection?

    2. is it to wake up the computer from standby or everything just stops?

    I suggest you try the steps below and check if you have the same problem.

    This could be possible only if media sharing is enabled on your computer.

    I suggest that you turn off media sharing and make sure you always have the same question:

    a. click the arrow below the Library tab, and then click media sharing.

    b. turn off media to find that others share and share my media to check boxes, and then click OK.

    By clicking OK, you confirm that you want to turn off sharing for yourself. You will also be asked if you want to turn off sharing for everyone who uses this computer. Note that if you let one of the selected check boxes, some sharing services may continue to run in the background.

    c. When you are prompted to turn off sharing for everyone who uses the computer, follow these steps:

    To make your changes apply to all users of your computer (including yourself), click Yes.

  • Running and Xbox 360 via Windows Media Center

    Hello, I am a new student of college, and because my funds are limited I am using my Xbox 360 via my PC monitor. When I bought my computer, I got also a HDTV Tuner with composite video options. Through their software, I could connect my xbox and see it, but I was wondering if there was a way I could do it through Windows Media Center or something similar. I saw that there is a cable that goes from the Xbox to VGA, but I think that there will be problems with the sound (where I have the red/white audio cables?). Not sure if there is a converter or not, but like I said before, funds are limited. Thanks for all your help and I look forward to hear from someone as soon as possible.

    Tyler Campbell

    Hey TechTyler,

    Since you have only one monitor and want to connect your PC and X - Box for the same monitor, I suggest that you try to find a separator that would help you get out of the XBox and the PC. You can use one of those to get the result on the same monitor of 2 devices. Who would use a VGA cable to connect 2 devices. You will be able to switch between your PC and the X - Box.You can try to search separator you can use to connect two monitors. I hope this information helps.

    However, we at microsoft do not recommend or suggest one of these, you will need to use them at your own risk.

  • How do I share files on Xbox 360 without Windows Media Player or 3rd Party applications

    Windows 7 sharing media files to the xbox 360 without media player

    I know that I can use Media Player 12 in windows 7 to share files on xbox 360 using the libraies, but I used to be able to share without media player and I would like to be able to do it again, but I can't seem to get my shared folders will appear on xbox. I don't know if I need to use folders to share public or not, but someone has all the answers on this for me?

    I use my xbox 360 to watch the video content streamed from my PC pretty much every night through a continuous connection to the xbox. You do not need Media Player or any other 3rd party application to video media IF THEY ARE THE RIGHT SIZE for a XBOX, you just need the PC configured for videos, turned on and networked with the xbox

    It is simple and quick, and depending on the content, there are two methods that I use:

    (1) as Etzel42 has described - in Windows 7 Control Panel > network and sharing Center, go to Advanced sharing > Media Streaming, select "chose the flowing media options...» ». If the Xbox 360 is running and put in place on the same (Local) network as the PC it will be displayed here but the value "blocked." Just change "Authorized" and click ok. (If you do not see the Xbox 360 listed here then the Xbox and PC cannot see each other on the network. You must address this issue before anything else).

    Once that streaming media is running, the video files you want to share with the Xbox is in addition to your video library. This can be done in en allant going to the computer, right-click on the 'Vidéos' library, go to 'Properties', then include the video or files to share. As a double check that all video files are available for the Xbox, open Media Player and see if he can see all the files/folders that you added. Close Media Player now, you do not need it works for watching videos on the xbox

    Now, go to the Xbox, go to the dashboard in my Xbox and video library. You should see the name of your PC as a selection. Open it and then open the folders that you added to PCs video shops and once again, if media files are in the right play on the Xbox, watch now format!

    (2) configure the Xbox Extender and Windows Media Center, and then run Media Center on the Xbox, this will allow you to play any kind of media format on the Xbox that you can play on the PC. It is ideal to play the Xbox formats cannot be opened natively too, it's pretty darn picky.

    In both methods you have not need of any application is running on the PC. Simply be turned on and available for the Xbox via the network. The Xbox will do the rest. In fact, one nice feature of the library on the Xbox 360 is that if your PC is in standby (Sleep), Media Center will wake up the PC.

  • Can I watch a show that is currently recording in Windows Media Center since the beginning of this show?

    I use Windows Media Center to record TV shows.  Suppose I record a show in an hour at 6:00, and I decide to 06:10 I want to watch this show from the beginning. (while it's recording)

    Is it possible to do this in Windows Media Center?  The media file of the recording of the show is not accessible until it is 100% finished recording.

    I am looking for a way to watch a show while it's recording, but to do so since the beginning of the show (after the start of recording)

    Suddenly, Windows Media Center Download the latest TV programming guide.  It worked fine, then all of a sudden it stopped.  WMC wonder if I want to download the latest Guide Listing.  I click on the download option, then he said: 'Guide lists have been downloaded successfully. Yet, when I go into my program Guide for all the different TV channels (everywhere in the air, no cable or satellite) it says "No data available" in other words not it offers for download, guide, said that he never actually makes the fact.

    I don't know how or why this happened. I tried to download the application manually Guide by going to tasks-> settings-> TV etc and it does the same thing. It says "Guide Listings were downloaded successfully" but nothing.

    How to fix?

  • Windows Media Center showing the gray screen (no picture but sound OK)

    Hi everyone, I had a problem with Windows Media Center for several weeks now: when I try to watch television, either recorded or live (from my tuner), WMC shows a square white gray but audio works fine. Trying to open the .wtv files in WMP has similar problems - presenting a black screen but with complete audio. Other files video (I tried .avi and .wmv) still work correctly. WMC was playing TV files without a problem until one day, it just stopped working. There wasn't that no updates not installed that startup and the system has been installed costs less than a week before the problem started.

    After spending a whole week looking for solutions online, there seem to be many people who have had this problem, but all have been fixed by different methods, and none of them seem to work here. I will list what I tried: installation and reinstallation of different codec packs, reinstall the WMC, uninstall and then reinstall all the Turners and the graphics drivers, setting the parameters within the WMC, graphics cards settings adjustment. I also tried to make a 'fresh' start (no extra service, just basic Microsoft services) to try and see if a particular service is causing the problem, but even in these conditions, the problem persists.

    I hope someone can help, if you need more information, let me know.

    I don't know what happened, I left my PC off overnight and planned reformatting today. But I decided to give him another chance. Instead of saying the tuner was not available. He showed me a static snow image strong, as he was trying to use my Analogue tuner. In fact, it is supposed to use the composite input for my cable box. I re set my TV signals, and now everything works well again. Its strange because I reboot half a dozen times last night and it's never worked. Leaving the PC turned off for the night must have done the trick, I guess.
