XBOX 360 and mp3 - Did I understand well???
|
|
| BigSimon 2005-10-21, 5:44 am |
| The X-Box 360 can ONLY stream mp3 or video files stored on an external
unit, but not in its 20 Gb Hard disk?
So, It is not possible to connect xbox 360 to a Windows XP PC (or
external mp3 player etc..) and save on XBOX the mp3 stored on the PC to
listen to them once the PC is disconnected?
If it is so, I'm very disappointed...
Thanks
BigSimon

You can rip music from CDs to the hard disk in the same fashion as the Xbox.
It's true you can't copy music from a portable player or from a PC, surely
the PC and Xbox would always be on the LAN anyway, so where's the problem?

Who would want to copy a 'huge' video clip onto the hard drive....with a
100mb home network it would take a while... PC Hard disk storage is much
cheaper and so streaming will always be the more sensible option!!!!...
leave the xb hard disk for game saves and swap file purposes....

Exactly, the 360 doesn't have 800GB of storage like my media server. 8-)
