XBMC & Relax Problems

[gessi2000]

i dont´t really know how to configure the relax server within xbmc.
fomer in xbmp i configured it this way:

<share>
<name>network (xns)</name>
<url>$root$mp3@192.168.0.2:1400</url>
<cachesize>256</cachesize>
</share>

i configured it within xbmc:

<bookmark>
<name>xns</name>
<path>$root$mp3@192.168.0.2:1400</path>
</bookmark>

also this way:

<bookmark>
<name>xns</name>
<path>xns://$root$mp3@192.168.0.2:1400/</path>
</bookmark>

why doesn´t this work?

not sure about why the change is necessary, but with a little trial and lots of error, i got it to work. it should be as follows.

<bookmark>
<name>xns</name>
<path>xns://192.168.0.2:1400/$root$mp3</path>
</bookmark>

sorry, but this does not work for me!
i can acces the main folder but when i click on it i don´t see any files but see the hardware structure of my xbox drives and partions!

thanks was going to ask this question myself but this saved the the trouble. i have tested this and it works great.

i changed my settings to this:

<bookmark>
<name>xns</name>
<path>xns://192.168.0.1:1400/$root$music</path>
</bookmark>

and now i can see all the folders i have selected in xns. but when i click a folder it just jumps to the root of my xbox and not the files under that folder on my computer. only when i add a file directly under xns and not a folder it works. why ?

i am not quite sure if this is what you are getting at but i have my xns setup in my xml as:

<bookmark>
<name>xns</name>
<path>xns://192.168.1.102:1400/documents and settings/all users/documents/my music</path>
</bookmark>

and it works well for me. i can go into the sub folders successfully and pick out my mp3s.

hmm, a little bit more info might be helpful...

the directory that i have shared using relax is:

c:\documents and settings\all users\documents\my music

do you see your folder or the files when you access xns under xbox ?

<bookmark>
<name>xns</name>
<path>xns://192.168.1.101:1400</path>
</bookmark>

i have used the above and it seems to work ok, have played a film off it. *but this means that you have all your shares listed and not just the one you want.

might be a work around for others that get it configured.

do you see your folder or the files when you access xns under xbox ?

about half of the time i see what is contained in the directory (in this case more folders which contain my mp3s). the other half i see (what appears to be random - i haven't narrowed it down yet) other folders that are in my xns shares. i do have a hard time because of the delay setting (which i still need to modify) on the select button.
