XBOX MEDIA SERVER
OK it seems I am one step closer to setting up ushare on my MGB111 device to enable media sharing to work with my XBOX360.
I'm going to try and put together a step by step which will hopefully help others to customise their MGB111 to work as a UPnP (TM) A/V & DLNA Media Server with their XBOX360, if anyone notices any mistakes please correct me.
The files used were obtained from the
http://mgb111.pradnik.net website, its worth checking out.

12.) Switch on your xbox360 check your Videos, Pictures, Music ( Don't forget to change the source on your XBOX360 to MGB111 device.
Note, i am still trying to work this out myself, but I've had it partially working up to the point i'm showing here, although it only works while the telnet application is open, i haven't worked out how to make it automatically boot up with the drive yet.Pro's & Cons Below:
Pros: 1) I've not yet and any problems at all video streams, I've even ad some High Definition movies running sweet from another room over wifi and its so far very impressive.
2) Videos Play pretty much instant so far.
3) Divx seems to be fully supported.
Cons:This application works fine, but I recommend you use it to stream video and Images only. The problem i found with using audio files is that it dumps them all in the same category i.e if you select the album tab on your console the console displays every single individual track under that tab, the same apply's to artist name and genre as well.
