need a little help if your familar with XBMP & DVDX

i've put XBMP & DVDX in seprate folders under apps and i'm only getting XBMP to come up. i can't get the DVDX folder to appear in the apps or games folder.

also my XBMP appears to work. it loads up and brings me to the setting icon. from there i can change all my settings but how do i play music from it? i've put in all sorts of media and nothing except that setting screen

what's going on with this? any suggestion?

Have you tried manually adding a link to dvdX?

As for xbmp reading music, did you link the music directory to the corect folder or did you put the music in the right folder that xbmp tells you to?

i didn't link anything. i just popped cd'd & dvd's in the drive.

i'ii try to add dvdx manually but how do you like xbmp to different folders. there is nothing on that in the readme file attached to the zip file.

i've been resding around but i can't find any info on my problem.

can XBMP run music from xbox's d: or do you have to load the music on you HD first and then play it.

hiya ,im a newbie to this also.My media player should play music,mpegs,vcds even divx files but it wont recognise them!Is it because they are on cdr not dvdr format?will that also mean I cannot copy the files from cdr to my hardrive

Berzy, I haven't tried reading from cd's yet. There should be a file like config.xml, or some kind of configuration file. In it is where you link everything to the source. I'm pretty sure that xbmp does support reading from the cd's, but a link might be required.

redbma, like I said above, I haven't tried reading from cd's yet. But, make sure your xbox is compatable with cd-r's. The new xbox can read cd-r and cd-rw's, but unfortunately the older ones can only read cd-rw's.
