xbmsp - ccxstream password

[zap brannigan]

if you run ccxstream without a password, xbox media center works fine.

if you set it up with a password, supposedly you can send user and password like so:

xbmsp://user:pass@192.168.0.1:1400/

to the server.

it works like this under xbox media player, but with xbox media center it won't access the ccxstream shares.

since ccxstream works fine without password i assume this qualifies as bug... this was using a compile dated: xbmc-2003-11-14

not sure if worth posting since new cross platform streaming protocol is on the way... :)

just tried it and it worked fine for me.
i started ccxstream on windows xp with the following command:
ccxstream -u username -p password -l 192.168.0.10 -s mymusic=d:\mp3 -s videos=d:\movies -s pictures=d:\pictures

and added the following map to xboxmediacenter.xml:

<bookmark>
<name>xbms</name>
<path>xbms://username:password@192.168.0.10:1400/</path>
</bookmark>

yes, confirmed it does work http://www.xboxmediaplayer.de/forums/non-cgi/emoticons/cool.gif

for some reason the build i was using, ccxstream wasn't working at all. shouldn't have changed build and put password on at same time http://www.xboxmediaplayer.de/forums/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif

i'm sure there's a lesson in this somewhere for me *:)

thanks.
