Hi,
I recently networked my xbox and pc and transfered all my wma files to it(my xbox). I would really enjoy listening to my music while I play Grand Theft Auto San Andreas. I placed them in E:/TDATA/ffffe0000/music/0000,
but to no luck. Please can someone tell me how to achieve this? I heard of a program tool something like xbox soundtrack editor. Please help! I would really really appreciate it.
Thanks for your time.

easy, just put XBMC (Xbox Media Centre) on there, either as an applications or as the main dashboard, and create a music folder somewhere, anywhere, then dump all your music in there..



Main PC ~ Intel C2Q Q6600 (G0 Stepping)/Gigabyte GA-EP45-DS3/2GB Crucial Ballistix PC2-8500/Zalman CNPS9700/Antec 900/Corsair HX 620W
Network ~ DD-WRT ~ 2node WDS-WPA2/AES ~ Buffalo WHR-G54S. 3node WPA2/AES ~ WRT54GS v6 (inc. WEP BSSID), WRT54G v2, WRT54G2 v1. *** Forum Rules ***

I have XBMC. I am trying to listen to them through the user custom soundtrack on the game. I guess you have to store it in a certain location for it to work while playing. Thanks anyways. I appreciate as much help as I can get.

The Xbox stores the music in it's own soundfile type. You have to rip them from a CD in the MS Dash to get them to work.

There is a program, but I think it's really hard...

i have done some testing with making custom soundtracks with ftp'ed music, and i found a way to get it to work.

What you need to do is make a soundtrack on you xbox in which you want to "create" into your custom one. all you have to do is get some audio cd's and make a huge sountrack. the sound track will be saved in E\TDATA\FFEE00\music. go to that folder and find which soundtrack is the one you just created.
what you need to do after that is covert the music that is going onto the soundtrack into the same format as what the xbox uses (it's .wma format, 96 bitrate, 44100 sampling rate).
once the music is converted, rename it to what the tracks are named on the soundtrack. for example, my soundtrack was in E\TDATA\FFEE000\music\0000. the first track was named 00000000.wma. so i renamed the first track i wanted to go on the soundtrack to 00000000.wma, overwrote the old file, and when i played the song with my MS dashboard, it was the sone i wanted for the soundtrack.

The reason why Just adding The tracks Doesn't work is because of the Thumbs.db file in the E\TDATA\FFEE000\music folder, is tells the xbox what soundtracks have how many songs, and what they are named.

I am sorry if my thoughts are confusing, i will try to edit them and make a tutorial for it if the need arises.
