View 1 Replies View RelatedI were to download a demo from [URL] would it save the demo to my laptop and then I could transfer it to my Xbox via Ethernet cable, even though my laptop has Ubuntu on it or does it have to be Windows computer?
I ask, b/c either way it is just a file on my laptop, regardless of the OS.
So, what does the community think?
Been trying for a couple days know to get my laptop to work with my 360 so I can use the internet connection from it so I can go online. I access the internet using my Nokia E72(ppp0) and I intend to use the laptop's ethernet port for the 360(eth0).
Tried this out [url] and a bunch of other guides which I can not find right now. Running Debian Testing and have no idea what to do next.
I was wondering is it possible to get a game controller like the Playstation or XBOX
for my computer?
Has anyone had any luck getting an xbox 360 controller working in 10.04. Everything I've found says it should just be plug and play with 9.10, but, I can't find any info regarding 10.04
It's a wireless controller that is plugged in using the usb tether/charger chord thing.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am running Ubuntu 9.10 with XBMC and am trying to use it to stream media to my XBOX 360. I can connect to it but it shows "No videos found" (same for music and pictures).
I can watch videos/listen to music/view pictures on my desktop so I am fairly sure the library is set up properly. I have samba set up and can view my shared media on my other desktop (running windows XP). I also tried using ushare, which worked but would not play very well.
I have tried all the setting in System-->Network, all to no avail.
Ive got my laptop hindered up to my xbox 360 it has windows 7 and Ubuntu 10.04. i realy want to get rid of windows and the only reason i keep it around is because ics sharing works realy well for connecting to xbox live.
I recently discovered that you can (ics) with ubuntu which is awesome only problem is
i cant figure out how to set it up to stop it having moderate NAT so i can play games that require an open NAT. its probably due to the ports not being fowarded properly or somthing and/or the face that my xbox needs a static ip placed out side the routers firewall on the DMZ setting .
I have ushare server connected to my 360 and its working fine, I can see my videos and watch them perfectly, but my music or mp3's arent displaying on the 360 properly at all.
In the video library it displays all the sub folders with the videos in them first and then the video files that arent in a folder, thats normal for me. But the music libray is only showing 1000 files and half of it is the album art jpg files etc. I have well over 30,000 mp3's and 98% of them are organised into folders etc.
Why its sharing my files in this way?
First time i installed and set config up it did fine now i get this error
Interface eth0 is down.
Recheck uShare's configuration and try again !
uShare (version 1.1a), a lightweight UPnP A/V and DLNA Media Server.

bind: Address already in use
i tried switiching to wlan0 and i still get the same error
Anyone know how to do that? btw when i execute xinput list it doesn't show my connected controller.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to cancel our cable tv. We don't really use it except for the kids and they don't care what's on as long as it's animated.
That being said, we have a ton of kid movies we want to try to burn to the computer and share those to the XBox. I know that Windows has a way of sharing files using Windows Media Player and sharing to the XBox, but I wasn't sure if there was another way.
My end goal for this project is to display a live internet stream through my PC on my TV by way of some DLNA client. I am currently using MiniDLNA (set up and working) as my server and I have a DirecTV receiver and an XBox 360 as options for the client. So far, I can view static videos on the client (something that is in the proper video format for the client to read), but I am having issues getting a live stream to work. My end goal for all of this is to watch MLB on my TV without having to plug a PC into my TV.
For those not familiar, there is a python project (mlbviewer) that will find the stream for me through my MLB.com account and stream that to VLC. I can then use VLC to transcode that to something that the DLNA client can read. I'm very new to DLNA and streaming video, so I'm not entirely certain what I need to do here, but I've read that the answer for the XBox is an ASX file that points to the stream. Currently, I cannot see the ASX file on the XBox (or DTV receiver) though I can see the other video files in the folder - which I think may be a MiniDLNA problem.
I have tried uShare and MediaTomb, and so far I prefer MiniDLNA (if it works) for its light weight and command line configuration.
I'm pretty sure this has been asked before, and I'm not even sure I'm in the right thread,*ahem* I am trying to stream media (or at least music) from my openSUSE 11.2 library, either from Amarok or a specialized program. The problem is, I only have one computer and it's upstairs, the Xbox is in the basement. So, it needs to be wireless. Not sure where I saw it, but there was a guide for doing it with Ubuntu, a spare computer, and an Ethernet cable. As you can see, however, there are 3 fatal flaws to this method in my case.
I used to use TwonkyMedia Server, but that was a trial, and I refuse to pay for any service that should be as simple as Pie (no, not Pi. That's not quite as simple).
Alright, I'm running Ubuntu KK 9.10 and I've probably read every ICS tutorial on ubuntuforums. I'm running wireless internet via a Linksys router and have a LAN card in my system as well.
(lshw -c network)
Code:
I tried the easy route with 9.10 (setting my wireless to DHCP and LAN to share connection) and although Ubuntu recognizes the Xbox when its turned on (I get a nice notification saying my wired connection is active) the Xbox gets no internet, and doesn't even recognize the connection. (when I tested the connection it failed before it even hit network...)
I would like to stream my HD Movie collection over a wireless network to my PS3 and/or Xbox 360.
All my movie files are MP4s and I wondering if it is possible to do this. If possible, I'd like to use the VLC player to do this but its not too important. I really really really do not want to sacrifice any video or sound quality while streaming.
I have an 80gb hard drive that I used in an xbox for xbmc and it was formatted to whatever it needed to be formatted to for it. Now that I want to use it in my computer, I can't format it back to ext4 or NTFS. It's somewhat recognized, but the partition shows up as unknown. Is there a program that I can get to reformat it? idk if gparted will work cuz it won't startup on the live CD. I will give it a shot once I install ubuntu onto the computer.
View 9 Replies View RelatedMy son has been using 9.10 and when he wanted to play on his XBox live, we just connected a ethernet cable to the Xbox and laptop then clicked on the wireless icon and clicked on wired connection and then he could play on his Xbox. But since upgrading to 10.04 this just will not work. We have tried with the XBox off and on, the wired connection connects but the XBox will not find the connection.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have been using uShare for a few years now, and up until now it has worked great. A few snags here and there, but nothing I couldn't figure out, although after five years using Ubuntu, i still consider myself a noob. Now I am on a new machine, running Ubuntu 11.04 (my last one was running 9.04) and I am having trouble with uShare again. Its installed, configured, and runs just fine, but my xbox won't recognize it.Here's the catch: the first night I set it up, after a few errors, I got it working! Watched a movie, smiled, and went to bed. Woke up the next morning, booted up the comp, fired up ushare and BAM! Nothing. I hadn't changed any settings, moved any cables, downloaded anything new, but no dice. After a little searching, I updated the .conf file to reflect a change I noticed in the IFACE. Sometimes when I boot my computer, it connects to the router on eth0, sometimes on eth1, and sometimes on eth0-eth1. I'm not sure what is up with that, but that may be a problem for another day. For right now, I just want uShare to work.
ushare.conf
# /etc/ushare.conf
# Edit this file with 'dpkg-reconfigure ushare'
[code]....
I want to play my videos on my xbox off of my pc [ubuntu10.10]. I have Ushare configured as follows:
USHARE_NAME=tom-ubuntu
USHARE_IFACE=xbox (I created a new wired connection in the network manager (IPV4 set to shared to other computers and that's what I named it).
USHARE_PORT=49200 (not sure if that's correct or how I'd go about finding the port)
USHARE_TELNET_PORT=
USHARE_DIR=/home/slayton/Videos/
USHARE_OVERRIDE_ICONV_ERR=
ENABLE_WEB=yes
ENABLE_TELNET=no
ENABLE_XBOX=yes
ENABLE_DLNA=no
On my xbox I go to test PC connection. It connects to the network but not the PC and goes to PC Not Listed.
I have some videos in .mkv that I need to convert to .avi to play on my Xbox 360. I started out trying ffmpeg, but ran into some errors. I tried some of the GUI options available, but they didn't work for me either and I prefer command line anyway. So I'm back to trying to get ffmpeg to work. I started off with:
Code:
ffmpeg -i movie.mkv movie.avi This gives me the Error while opening codec etc etc due to not specifying enough parameters. So if I try something like:
Code:
ffmpeg -i movie.mkv -vcodec copy -acodec copy movie.avi
I get "av_interleaved_writeframe(): Error while opening file" error
[Code]...
So at this point I have an idea how to make it work, but am lacking some info. I figure if I try to go from .mkv to .avi while giving it the correct codec options -vcodec and -acodec it will know what to do and give me a workable result. The problem is I don't know what those codecs are. Is there another way for me to work this?
Is info on output of either Wii or XBOX to Linux program available? I have a familial tremor and hope to use one of these devices to measure efficiacy of various medicines; since both devices use accelerometers, displaying output in either graphical or digital form could be a useful tool in determining whether increased dosage is useful in decrease of tremor. If this works, could be a lucrative business since large numbers of seniors suffer from tremor, palsy, Parkinson, and similar diseases.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI just got a new XBox 360, and I would like to get it connected to the internet.
I cannot run hardline Ethernet to it, as the nearest line is across the house.
I have, in the past and on friends machines, had success setting up a shared internet connection from my Ubuntu box to the XBox in question. I would always follow this guide, and it would work right away. [url]
Recently, I have purchased a new wifi router. This has changed the DHCP makeup of my home network from 192.xxx.xxx.x numbers to 10.0.0.x. I dont know why, but thats how the Netgear router set things up. I have reserved addresses 10.0.0.(2-4) for specific computers because of remote access needs, anything above 10.0.0.5 is empty.
Following the guide that I linked above, I cannot get the XBox connected.
I believe that the fact that the rest of the network is listed under 10.x.x.x may be the culprit, as the DCHP server on MY computer would be assigning the same Local IP as the other devices on the network. (I.E. Giving the XBox 10.0.0.2 and my computer 10.0.0.2)
To clarify how my network is connected; this is how the network is setup:
Internet/Phone line ---> Verizon Westell DSL modem in 'bridged mode' (IP 192.168.x.x) ----> Netgear WGR614v10 Wireless (IP 10.0.0.1) ----> Computer connected via wifi (10.0.0.x) ====> Shared connection to XBox (IP ? supposedly 10.0.0.x)
Somewhere between the computer and the shared connection, The xBox is getting lost, and cannot connect. The troubleshooting shows that it could connect to the network, but it cannot access the internet as a whole.
i have searched and searched for an answer but nothing i've found has worked for me what i have is an old computer with 2 network cards in it the 1 conected to the internet is eth1 one connected to the xbox via crossover cable is eth2, what i'm trying to do is share the internet connection to the xbox using ubuntu,i've tryed alreadyusing the network manager,using firestarter,ip tables,even nat,and all have failedi've been using ubuntu for 4yrs now, and i have always before been able to find answers to my problems by simply googling the answer. but this is one i can't seem to find an answer on.
