Well must say I am a bit confused icon_confused.gif I have Ps3 and Xbox 360 and to share files you have to allow media sharing. I have actually tried to get this to work and cant get it working icon_lol.gif My PC and PS3 or Xbox 360 can never detect each other, became annoying so I gave up. All I wanted to do was stream film from the PC to the Xbox 360 in the front room. How you have managed to set it up without event trying is a mystery icon_lol.gif


if you have the firewall set incorrectly on your computer it will block it showing up on the network

I dont know what I tried it was some time ago. Think I tried setting the 360 in a DMZ but it still didnt work icon_confused.gif Will look at it again, the network has altered a bit so may get more luck.

Thanks for all the input guys icon_biggrin.gif we eventually got it sorted out...thank god! Was a worry as we are not technophobes but just didn't realise that the PS3 could have access to everything lol. Kandis face when he shouted me after he had seen his ass fly by the screen on my sons room was a picture icon_biggrin.gif Hope you all had a lovely Christmas

Ok easy answer....

Create a folder with in the "Program Files" folder (Windows will not like it but your fine to carry on) then hide all your fun pictures and videos in there. This works really well as the system files ie those in the program folder are not index by Windows and therefore will not show up on media sharing.

Hope this helps, any probs drop me a line and I can talk you though it better.

Thankyou for the non technical information. Tried the create a folder suggestion, and that appears to have worked. Must admit though, for us non technical minded grown ups, its quite a worry what you may access on these game stations

The 360 is allowed in media sharing and the PC can see the 360 wave.gif However the 360 fails to detect a pc icon_confused.gif I once again tried putting the 360's IP address as the DMZ and the 360 still cant see the PC. Been trying this off and on for at least 2 years icon_lol.gif really do give up now icon_rolleyes.gif

Could it be the PC's firewall not letting the 360 in? dunno.gif

Actually was playing with it again lst night icon_lol.gif Forwarded a load of recommended ports and still had the 360's IP set as the DMZ. I also updated media player. I removed a switch from my network that was no longer of any use. PC can still see the 360 but can the 360 detect the PC, can it fuck icon_lol.gif

You get the same problem with Apple TV II's.

As they utilise Apple's home share via i-tunes it can circumvent the Windows Networking Share settings. By default the pictures pick up 'MY PICTURES' folder and allows access to any sub-directories in there.

When I switched over the other evening to watch a film on the Apple, we found the screen saver showing selections from the 'adult' folder - oooooppps icon_sad.gif

DMZ on your router has nothing to do with it, your X360/PS3 are connected to the local LAN therefor the router is not the issue.

What version of Windows are you running?

Windows XP SP3 I believe. I have one more thing to try that I have not yet done and that is turn off windows firewall then try it. However, sure I tried this in the past with no luck but not at the same time as having the ports forwarded etc.

look here http://www.agoraquest.com/viewtopic.php?topic=35037&forum=70
you need the lastest windows media player first, try and turn firewall off and if it then works all you need to do is set it up correctly, you dont need to do port forwarding, you can allow applications directly
if all else fails you can use tversity as a 3rd party app
