Picked up an xbox USB adapter, loaded a 2 CD xvid movie onto a flash drive, and tried playing the movie directly from it.
There were a _few_ spots where the system couldn't read data via the USB 1.1 interface fast enough, eventually resulting in cache depletion and some dropped frames.
Tried increasing the cache. I eventually determined that "Video Cache - Local Network" seemed to be the setting that controlled caching for the USB drive. This did the trick, but obviously has the "side effect" of increasing the Local Networking cache.
Is there a way to seperately set the cache for USB storage?
