Can NOT get PC to recognize Xbox 360 using Media connect

My 360 won't stream some mp3's for some reason. I put them on my Ipod and it streams them just fine. Also some mp3's it gives them funky artist names like "?" or "." But again, everything works perfectly when I plug my Ipod into it. Weird :-|
 
am I the only one here obssessed with this feature in 360?
been downloading gravure idols pics and watch it while listening to music... :D

sp3ed, yes I have that same problem too...:(
 
Ah. Thanks Exxy! I was having trouble getting the PC to see the 360 as well. Then I fired up the network setup and it all works like a charm now.
 
Sorry to bump on old thread on this, but I've been struggling with this all day long. I finally got my Xbox 360 and my PC talking to each other, and I can even stream music and look at pics, but...It doesn't do it well. When it's playing music, it randomly stops for minutes at a time before switching to the next song, or pauses while loading a picture during a slideshow. I've opened all the ports (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/910635) I'm supposed to have open, but it still happens except for when I disable my firewall completely. Any ideas? I've even tried opening all ports (0 to 65535) for the Xbox's network IP address, but it still happens.
 
Haha, now I have the EXACT OPPOSITE reason I started the thread happening. The PC can see the Xbox 360 perfectly now, but not Vice versa. AND I DIDN'T CHANGE ANYTHING? WTF :P
 
I had the same problems as a few people in this thread, but it was me being a smartass with the Services setup aswell. That and Sygate Personal Firewall REALLY doesn't like it, so I have to switch it off.

I hope they add a little more functionality to the picture viewer but other than that I'm extremely impressed with it.
