hi there! sorrry, it didn't seem to work on my system. but it did have the side effect of getting my 360 to be discovered by the media center... and then get rejected since i have a pal system. but ccxgui works fine (except for renaming/deleting files)

[B4tm4n]

yeah i got as far as my 360 being recognized, but theres only support for ntsc machines at the moment for the media centre. haven`t tried smb shares with xbmc yet.

[rec]

the way described on the french forums is actually the way i first attempted to setup the share upon vista install, and it does not work.

[rec]

no, unfortunately all the ideas/methods described in the other thread did not work. the method documented with video tutorials is actually the first i tried upon installing vista, and i had no luck.

this smells a little funny... since regular computers don't seem to suffer from this problem, my thoughts go to the new uac (user access control) system... is it possible that it is a countermeasure from m$? how does the xbox present itself to the computer holding the shares?

has anyone tried logging smb while trying to connect? i will give it a try, just have to upgrade first. it's a pita this won't work...

ok, fresh install of current cvs with smb loglevel=3 reveals,

20:54:05 m: 40075264 error: smbdirectory->getdirectory: unable to open directory : 'smb://xbox:[email protected]/series'
unix_err:'7' nt_err : 'c0000022' error : 'access denied'
20:54:05 m: 40075264 error: cguimediawindow::getdirectory(smb://xbox:[email protected]/series/) failed

so, it would seem it is vista's new security measures blocking us... anyone agree/disagree?

[rec]

indeed it is vista blocking the xbmc, this much we already knew.

now we need a solution...

[goblin]

just trying to start a dialogue that might lead somewhere...

back to my prior question;

how does *any* computer see the xbox/xbmc? as an "xbox", windows 2000 or what?

would it be possible to change the way xbmc presents itself in the smb negotiation into something vista might recognize?

[rec]

i'd assume so, as my other xp machines access my vista shares without password, and without problem.

Has anyone found a fix or workaround for this yet? It's still broken with Vista RC1 and 2006-08-27 T3CH Build of XBMC.

[nad]

A workaround is to use the upnp functionality built into Vista. This can be set up using Windows Media Player (options->Library->Configure Sharing) and then use the XBMC client function. This works with RC1.
