i have my xbox hooked up to my front projection theater. i use the xbox to listen to music while using my gym, i dont want to have to power up my projector all the time just to play some music. i bought a new laptop to help this out. now when i connect to the xbox via the webservice i can shuffle through my files on my smb shares....but if i were to pick the first song of an album to start playing, that is all it will do. it wont move on to the next song in the list. is there anyway to make the webserver run just like the regular gui on the box?
otherwise i would have to keep creating playlists for each album to get them all to play continuous i think.i'm in the exact same situation with the projector. unfortunately, this app is giving me a lot of problems. it won't see my shared music folder at all, and my girlfriend's folder is spelled completely wrong. these work completely fine through xbmc on the xbox and through the normal http interface.
i tried the xboxmediaremote which works a little better, but is still buggy and slow.
all i want is a simple and fast way to play my music files which are stored on a networked external drive without turning to projector on. there has got to be an answer somewhere!check this out! (http://www.xboxmediaplayer.de/cgi-bin/forums/ikonboard.pl?act=st;f=5;t=9397)
there is an option in this program similar to what you want and it is far superior to the web service ur using now.........
just go to media and press the + button on on the folder you wanttry looking for updated xbmc web content. the features your looking for may already be implimented (thread in this forum somehwere, search for httpapi )cool, i will have to try this out tonight.
check out my theater
