pistonbroke Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 Yes, you can stream music to the 360 to listen too, but not copy it across. you need a wireless network and media player 11, selct share in the tab at the top of the media player window and select the 360 on the network, then, set the 360 up to share the music, it becomes an option in the 360 dashbord to listen to music from your PC.

DannyW Posted April 1, 2007 Author Share Posted April 1, 2007 Just noticed you can rip cd's on to the xbox, that'll keep me occupied for now. Is there no way to connect with wires, don't like wireless-ness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 Yeah, if you have a network card on you lappy just bung a bit of cat5 between them... I think you might find that very few 360 games have custom soundtracks though... which is annoying.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pistonbroke Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 while playing any game, press the button in the centre of the controller, then select music, then select source, then play all. The music in the game will stop and your slected music will play Its been a godsend throughout test drive unlimited Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DannyW Posted April 1, 2007 Author Share Posted April 1, 2007 why will it let me stream some songs but not others? wrong file type? or copyright issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pistonbroke Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 some mp3's have DRM (digital rights managment) which means you can't do much with them. and yes, certain file types cannot be played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
