Streaming media from PC to XBOX 360 via BT Router ...

Hi,
I've just moved house, I used to be with SKY BB and I've never had any issues streaming media from my PC to my XBOX.
I have tried everything I can think of (I have even restored my PC) but then I realised that the only thing that is different is my router?
I'm connected from the PC to the router via WiFi
My XBOX is connected via a cable directly into the router.
But the XBOX can not detect the PC
But my PC can see the XBOX
'My Videos' - 'My Music' - & Media Centre does not work on the XBOX
(Yes, all of my folders are shared, in the past I have done this 100's of times)
am I missing something? Is there a setting on the router that needs changing??
Many Thanks
Ben

The IP subnet for the home hub is different than your Sky router, so you may need to make some changes to your device settings.
If its a home hub 4, then this thread may also help.

Time Capsule & Xbox 360 via ethernet

Hi
I have a Time Capsule connected to my modem wireless, I can access the internet over WiFi on my mac without issues.
When I connect my Xbox 360 to the router via ethernet it will not allow me to connect to Xbox live.
According to some forums people are able to connect their TC with XBOX 360. I can connect to xbox live if I directly plug it into my modem, so it is not anything to do with XBOX itself.
Does anybody has experience with that stuff?
Thank you in advance for any help!
Flo

Are you sure?
I am able to connect my XBOX with my wireless router. That works very good.
But I am not able to realise a connection between my XBOX 360 and my TC. So probably I have to change some configurations on my TC, right? Maybe it is a problem with my IP or DHCP configurations? I have the same problems with my Media Player ASUS O!Play HDP-R1. With wireless router I can connect the media player via ethernet to the internet but it does not work with Time Capsule.
I am really frustrated. I don't get it.

Streaming media from wireless external hard drive and MBP to TV?

Hi everyone. I have a retina MBP and have recently bought a Sony Bravia smart tv with wireless. I have a time machine (the new one) with an external hard drive connected to it with all my media, photo, movies etc. My tv is connected to my wireless from the time machine and I'm wondering how do I stream media from my external hard drive to my tv? And how do I stream media from my MBP to my tv wirelessly? I can't seem to figure it out. Also mirroring my MBP desktop to my tv wirelessly, can it be done without an apple tv? Thanks in advance.

I had the same issue. It was due to the appalling performance of the USB connection to the disk, not any issue with the wireless connection itself. My iMac was within 7m of the router, on the same floor, with a clear line of sight and good reported connection speed. I have the latest late-2009 version of the AEBS running the 7.5 firmware. This has loads of performance problems (read these forums). I'm hoping that Apple will release the new firmware (7.51) for download soon and then the issue may be resolved.

Can I connect 2 sony bravia's, a sony home theatre, 2 macbooks, 2 ipads, 3 iphones and a dell laptop and stream media from my apple devices to my tv?

Can I connect 2 sony bravia's, a sony home theatre, 2 macbooks, 2 ipads, 3 iphones and a dell laptop and stream media from my apple devices to my tv? I have a sony bravia 600 series and 700 series and a home theatre( sony 7100 series)

The only way to stream directly to your TV would be if it is an AirPlay-enabled device.
There are many AirPlay-enabled devices but I am not familiar with Sony's products. If yours do not specifically indicate AirPlay capability, then you need an AirPlay-enabled device such as an AppleTV connected to your Sony TV or Sony AVR.

2. not that I know of
been looking for something a bit like it got an old ipod thouch in a audio dock in the kitchen and want to give it access to all my music not just play what is synced
so far my only options is to get an app to use upnp to get the music directly from my nas
or get some app which require the computer to be running and running some program to handle it
and as far as I can tell getting access to stuff synced on the atv is a no go

WRT54GS cannot connect to windows media center with xbox360/can stream media from PC to x-box

- running win XP MCE and set up xb 360 on wireless router WRT54GS updated from V1 to V 4.71.4 . PC wired to router and DSL signal goes by wire from wall to modem, router, PC. I can stream media through xbox but not make the WMC connection. I still get the"xbox360 not found on network". I have gone through x-box set up page and installed the setup files. I excluded windows firewall as a problem. I can connect to Xbox live and xbox live/media tests on the xbox run w/o any failures.

Thanks for your reply Yes, I can connect to Xbox live from x box w/o diff. It seems that the xbox can "see" the PC but the PC cannot "see" the xbox. My PC is XP not Vista.

I want to stream media from a NAS drive connected to my Time Capsule.

I recently bought the Time Capsule to serve as my backup and my wireless router. Both of my Macs are now using it via Time Machine. I now want to move my large ITunes and IPhoto databases from an external hard drive on one Mac to a network drive where I can stream/view from either Mac. What is the best way to do this?
1. Buy a NAS drive with just ethernet and connect to one of the three port on the Time Capsule? If so, what is the best drive to buy?
2. Use a USB drive and attack to the USP port on the Time Capsule? If so, will any USB drive work?
3. Other?

i recently moved my iTunes library to a NAS. i'm very happy with performance.
have a look at this discussion.
as for iPhoto, all i have is a link to a recent discuss over atthe Apple TV forum but don't know how relevant it is: https://discussions.apple.com/message/15366429#15366429
2. Use a USB drive and attack to the USP port on the Time Capsule? If so, will any USB drive work?
as long as the drive is properly formatted, yes. you may need to use a powered USB hub. the USB connection may or may not be a bottleneck as compared to full gigabit speed of the NAS.

Cannot stream RENTALS from Mac to apple TV via Homesharing

Hi,
very odd problem here since a couple of weeks. I have a Apple TV 3rd Gen. which I use to stream content from my Mac via Homesharing. Everything works well (I can stream music, images, movie-long HD podcasts) besides I want to stream a rental video. I can browse through the library, select a movie as normal but when I fire it off to play it takes forever to start playing. I was waiting for minutes but the movie does not start. On the other hand I can stream the rental flawlessly the other way round, from my Mac to my Apple TV. It takes just seconds to start.
I cannot really work out when the issue appeared but it surfaced a few weeks ago.
Any idea how to solve this?
Thanks,
Tom

You can do this either from the music app on the iPad or from the remote app, it's quite simple and intuitive. Once you get the iPad it should be quite apparent how it works. If you aren't sure at that time post back.

Capture Card or streaming device for Macbook Pro & Xbox 360

Stream media from PC to BB 9360 ?

Hi, simple enough question, rather than having to copy over all my tunes to my curve, I would prefer to just strream them from my pc's wmp dlna server. Anyone familar with htc android phones will know how easy and simple this is to do on these devices. But how can one do it on a blackberry, I see they added a file sharing feature in os7.1 but all it seems to do is share media from my bb to my pc (stupest thing ever, as there is a much greater chance that one's music is on their pc not their phone ) Any ideas ? Thx

If you have a Blackberry Desktop Software, you can look for the Wireless Music Sync, you can also stream music there on DLNA.

Cannot Stream Media from 8.1.7 with RealServer 8.0

Windows Professional 2000
DB = 8.1.7
Running 9iAS 1.0.2.2 (Apache)
Verified interMedia option was installed with:
@<ORACLE_HOME>\ord\im\admin\imdbma.sql (on Windows NT)
(where <ORACLE_HOME> is the Oracle home directory)
Returned with Installed
Downloaded & installed RealServer 8.0, Modified the rmserver.cfg
to reflect my local machine. Started servce: Loaded Admin Page.
Worked.
Stopped RMServer, Downloaded Oracle's Plugin and placed it into
the RealServer\Pluggins directory.
Downloaded the Test sample (Racecar and Film Clip). Modified
the test.html (two links) to point to my local machine.
Started RM Server. No Errors in log other than it was not
licensed.
Error: "Requested File Not Found, the Link you followed my be
innaccurate or outdated" rtsp://127.0.0.1:554/dbvideo/'1'
I tested the RealPlayer by just playing a file that is in the
ProgramFiles\Real\RealServer\Content. I typed in the URL the
following:rtsp://127.0.0.1:554/real8audio.rm. This worked.
Please Help.
Chase.

If I look in qtff3260.dll in the plugins directory, I see a mimetype of application/x-pn-quicktime-stream there. I assume that this is the mimetype that realserver expects.
I typically use the strings command with grep to discover the necessary mimetype for a particular file format from the shared objects (or DLLs) in the realserver plugins directory since real does not publish this information.
Try the above mimetype and see if it works. I have streamed quicktime from realserver to a quicktime player in the past.
I would suggest mimetype mapping be used in a PL/SQL procedure used by the plugin.
For example:
create or replace procedure GetVideo
(DATA OUT BLOB,
MIMETYPE OUT VARCHAR2,
ID IN NUMBER )
is
MT VARCHAR2;
begin
select t.video.GetContent(),
t.video.GetMimeType()
into
DATA,
MT
from movies t
where t.item_ID = ID;
-- Mimetype mapping
if INSTR(MT,'real') > 0
MIMETYPE := 'audio/x-pn-realaudio';
elif INSTR(MT,'qt') > 0 or INSTR(MT,'quicktime') > 0
MIMETYPE := 'application/x-pn-quicktime-stream';
-- Any other formats you might want to support here
else
MIMETYPE := MT;
endif
end;

AirPort Extreme doesn't detect Xbox 360 via Ethernet Cable

Apple replaced my Airport Extreme a couple of days ago due to a power surge, but since then I've verified that everything else works just fine. My Airport extreme won't work with my Xbox 360! I have verified all the cables work, I have plugged the ethernet cable directly into the modem and the xbox will connect, but when I plug the ethernet cable into the airport it won't work. I have tested all of the ports on the Airport and they work perfectly. It's as if the Airport isn't giving the ethernet cable enough power to get to the xbox or something. I'm very confused... It has worked just fine in the past. Has anyone experience anything even close to this or know how to fix it?

If you have a cable modem, it needs a complete reset.
Push the reset button and power it down
Pulll the battery if it is easily accessible
Power down everything else on the network...all devices...order is not important
Wait at least 15 minutes
Power up the modem first and let it run 2-3 minutes by itself
Power up the AEBS and let it run 2-3 minutes
Power up each device and let it run a minute or so before you power up the next device.
If you have a DSL modem, power everything on the network down and wait a few minutes, then power up in sequence as above.

Options for streaming media from my macbook to my tv?

Hello All, I am a novice when it comes to this kind of stuff so bear with me!
I have a macbook pro (Mid 2012) and a Panasonic Flat TV - I currently use a cable from my macbook to my tv for watching video files of all kinds and to watch netflix (where I use Hola to watch netflix from other countries), I also currently use it as a dvd player (but this isn't necessary in a future set up)
What I would like is a wireless version of this setup but with the ability to still use my macbook whilst the media is being played. Is this possible? (I have a wi fi router)
I have looked into AppleTV but as far as I can make out, this only uses mirroring so I would not be able to continue using my macbook to surf the web for example, and because it plays via itunes I would have to convert a lot of my video files to mpeg-4 which I'd rather not do. Am I correct in thinking this?
I have also considered a wifi blu ray player like the Sony BDPS3100 which would allow me to play most of my files as is but I'm not sure how the technology works, as in is it mirroring too or could I continue using my macbook?
Any info on the above or any other options I haven't thought of would be appreciated!

Krista,
