deathwarder Posted May 15, 2006 Posted May 15, 2006 I have a huge music collection that I want to put on my 360, I cant stream it from a pc, as I do not have enough hd space on the computer it is hooked up to, and my other computers are on a different network. I was wondering if I can burn the music to a dvd in a way that will let me rip it to the 360?
ripken204 Posted May 15, 2006 Posted May 15, 2006 well with the regular xbox there is a disk u could but called "xbox music mixer" which allow you to connect the xbox to the comp and transfer it thru an ethernet cable.and also for the regualr xbox, it would only be able to use the cda file format, the music mixer allows mp3.
deathwarder Posted May 15, 2006 Author Posted May 15, 2006 ok, I am just asking about the 360, not the original
ripken204 Posted May 15, 2006 Posted May 15, 2006 well im not sure about the 360, just check the xbox site
deathwarder Posted May 16, 2006 Author Posted May 16, 2006 they say to stream it or rip it from a cd, but seeing as I had to rip over 100cds to make my collection I am not doing that for my 360
Stead Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 my friends just use a usb storage device, any mp3 player that windows see's as a drive in explorer should work
Biohead Posted May 21, 2006 Posted May 21, 2006 Get an External USB hardrive then - plug it into the 360 and it's picked up as portable device. However - I think there is a limit of 100 songs unless you stream it. You wouldn't be able to put your music on the 360 HDD as it has a paltry 13gb.Best bet would be to buy a very large internal HDD, install it into the PC networked to the 360 then configure it to stream.
deathwarder Posted May 25, 2006 Author Posted May 25, 2006 I only have like 3-4gigs of music, but on the networked computer I need every last meg, If I plug in a portable usb device will I be able to copy the music to the hdd?

Muahaha... Apparenlty w/o modding there is no such way that I know of or can find to copy music in .mp3 directly top the 360. Just buy some more HD space and use windows media connect, which comes with XP SP2 to stream music. Check google man! G/L
deathwarder Posted May 25, 2006 Author Posted May 25, 2006 I have, but i cant get more hd space right now, and will be taking the 360 on a trip, away from my computer
