Got the FUPPES-xbox360 setup blues.

Post by Lancer »

Well after a rigorous time installing FUPPES, I finally got the correct latest, stable release installed, and it will actually run, and get recognized by the xbox, but none of the media will show up, I've checked my fuppes.cfg & vfolder.cfg with several from different sources from across the interwebz(been trying to setup streaming to my 360 for 3 days), and still no dice.
Can anybody here help me with something specific maybe?

Also I'm completely busting my linux cherry right now, installed Linux Mint 11 on friday.
Acer-Aspire 5742-7120

and the 360 is one of the newer "S" models. 4GB model, no hdd.

I use uShare, if you want to post your config file and try and go from there.

Otherwise I'm not too familiar with FUPPES.

Do you mean the ushare config file?
I fully removed all ushare and XBMC files.

and I did post the fuppes config file in the op.
the first bit of code, fuppes.cfg.

Just in case I'll post it again.

Yes, I should have specified, the uShare config file.

Alright well, I've got ushare installed, up and running. Still showing up on the 360, but still no media available.

ushare.conf

Code: Select all

# /etc/ushare.conf
# Edit this file with 'dpkg-reconfigure ushare'
# Configuration file for uShare

# uShare UPnP Friendly Name (default is 'uShare').
USHARE_NAME=LancerMedia

# Interface to listen to (default is eth0).
# Ex : USHARE_IFACE=eth1
USHARE_IFACE=eth1

# Port to listen to (default is random from IANA Dynamic Ports range)
# Ex : USHARE_PORT=49200
USHARE_PORT=

# Ex : USHARE_TELNET_PORT=1337
USHARE_TELNET_PORT=

# Directories to be shared (space or CSV list).
# Ex: USHARE_DIR=/dir1,/dir2
USHARE_DIR=/Public

# Use to override what happens when iconv fails to parse a file name.
# The default uShare behaviour is to not add the entry in the media list
# This option overrides that behaviour and adds the non-iconv'ed string into
# the media list, with the assumption that the renderer will be able to
# handle it. Devices like Noxon 2 have no problem with strings being passed

Test with a single folder in /home/USERNAME first. Maybe a permissions issue.

Make sure to restart the ushare service each time a change is made to the config file.
sudo service ushare restart should do in terminal

Alright well I tried it with only my music folder as a directory

Code: Select all

# Directories to be shared (space or CSV list).

USHARE_DIR=/home/USER/Music
still to no avail. I tried changing the permissions to the Music folder, but when I click apply to all subfolders and files it just refreshes and sets them all back to "-----"
proxima_centauri

Re: Got the FUPPES-xbox360 setup blues.

Post by proxima_centauri »

Just to make sure
The line "USHARE_DIR=/home/USER/Music", actually has your own username at USER right?
And you shouldn't need to change any permissions if it's in your own home folder.

The only other difference I see between our config files is that I don't have an answer for USHARE_ENABLE_WEB=
Lancer

Re: Got the FUPPES-xbox360 setup blues.

Post by Lancer »

Yeah I've got the correct folder name where "USER" is, I'll try not having an answer for USHARE_ENABLE_WEB, and also when I put an answer for the port to listen to, it quit showing up on the network all together.

I think theres something with this laptop, it was just as much trouble to setup with my 360 when it had win7.
Do you think I could put XP on, and somehow stream through Linux?

Re: Got the FUPPES-xbox360 setup blues.

Post by proxima_centauri »

If you installed WIndows XP, you could try sharing through XP - but it would have no effect in sharing through Linux Mint

The 360 is seeing your share, which is good. It cannot see any file which lead me to believe it was something with permissions or folder typo. If those are correct I cannot see why it should not share assuming you're on the same network.
