Official Xbox Q&A thread

It didn't do that when I put a CD in, but I think I know why.

I just need to burn the disk as a music CD instead of "Works on Computers and some CD players."

Kinda crappy about the PC to 360 thing, I wont bother now.

You guys should really just setup the stream if you can. Why waste space on your 360 drive when you can keep it all on the computer?

I've got mine setup, it's awesome.

Check this thread, it's got the deets on how to do it.

I did, but I was under the impression that you could transfer your music and whatnot to your HD.

I'm in the process of ripping some music to my HD via a CD.

I just had to change the format like I posted earlier.

It seems like the easiest way to do it, I am going to try doing it with a DVD but I am pretty sure it wont work.

My suggestion would be to either Rip musics CD's to your 360, or Rip them to a PC, burn a disk with all the songs you want, and rip it to the 360.

(I think this topic is way off topic now, I will stop posting about this.

No, it's not off-topic at all. It's still sort of under the media-to-360 catagory I was asking abot at first. But yeah, that is true about the CD to 360 thing, but I think it would be a lot faster and a lot more convenient(sp?) to be able to directly transfer the data...maybe I can bring this to the attention of Microsoft and something could be done? But I doubt it.

I get that, but why the hell would you want to?

Store on computer + stream to 360 = More HD space free on 360

Because I don't have a router atm.

But now I think I've run into another problem.

Yesterday, I charged my batteries in my controller to full charge, then cut off my 360 and left. When I got home I went to play, but the thing that shows your controller battery life only showed one bar but it still played for about 3 hours. Could my battery life sensor be malfunctioning, and could this be threatening to my controller? This is like the 4th time it's happened this week.

Push the battery pack up, like hold it and see what happens, this happens to alot people, its either the controller or the battery pack, when it happened to me it was my battery pack, they mostly come like that with the play n charge kits, i bought a quick charge kit and the battery pack seemed to be a little bigger then the one the play n charge kit had, and after that the quick charge kit battery pack works better, i marked it so it doesnt get mixed with the other

but like i said, usually the battery packs...

Happened to me for the first few months I was using the quick charge kit.

Mine always said 1 bar, but could play for the entire battery life.

It eventually stopped doing it by itself, its not really anything to worry about, at least not in my case.

Ah ok, that makes sense then.

As for your batteries, it could just be a fluke. I wouldn't sweat it. Because those ain't batteries, it's doo doo baby.
