I'm sure the setting sare correct, apart from IP address which i put .100 in all of them (it has the rest)..
Ok First post :beer:
I had the same problem ( I think its a problem with Media Connect more )
Dont worry there is a solution ...
The New Version of Windows Media Player ( MP11 ) Supports Media sharing
The way to do this is to download the newest player HERE
Next Install and open it .. Go to the library tab ( On the top ) And click the little arrow below it ... "Then click add to library" ( this is important as it gives the 360 something to find ) then add whatever music folders you want into WMP ... Next open" Media Sharing" , Media Player should then automatically detect the 360 on the network ( Make sure the 360 is turned on )
You will then need to allow it within the menu on WMP
THEN ...
Go to the 360 Media Slide > Music > Select Computer the 360 should then automatically find the PC / Laptop and any music that is in the Media Player Library will then be visable on your 3600 -
