Where can I get Windows Media Connect?

Post by JK-47 »

I tried microsoft.com but they don't have a download link... wtf?

Don't tell me to use Zune to connect to my xbox because I tried Zune software and it's freaking retarded.

They no longer have Windows Media Connect. The easiest was is to stream through Windows Media Player 11. Here's a guide.
Good luck.

if they no longer offer a download, why not ask someone for the installer? for example, lavalys doesn't offer everest for download anymore, but i have a working installer i can send to people that want it. anyways, see if you're friends have the installer lyin' around anywhere.

Could just use a jumpdrive if you want to play/view media. Media center is such a hassle sometimes.

Well the problem is now, that when I plug my computer and xbox via ethernet with a cable that came with the 360, the computer doesn't find the xbox, or the xbox doesn't find the computer, I dunno.

If you're trying to plug your xbox directly to your computer, you'll need an RJ-46 cable, standard ethernet cables are RJ-45. You could run both through a router with standard ethernet cables though.

Hmm, that's wierd because my friend could just plug his in with the standard 360 cable :? He has better luck with these things than me ;_;

Meh, I don't want to spend money on another cable, I've boughten so many cables for so many things its rediculous lol.

My suggestion is to just use a jumpdrive. It's so much easier and you can get a decent sized drive pretty cheap today.
