    Cannot connect XBox360 to Asset 4

    Hi

    I'm sure I've had this working in the past with Asset 3, but I'm running on WHS2011, so want to use Asset 4. Basically, when I go into the music player in Xbox360, and select my source, I see the Asset server there just fine. However, when I select the source, instead of the list of albums, I see "The Connection to your computer was lost. Make sure your computer is turned on, connected to your network, and running media sharing software". Anyone got any ideas?

    BTW - other clients can see Asset fine, and the XBox can see other servers. I've also tried disabling the firewall on the server with no joy.

    OK - done some more research - this is definately something specific to Asset. I've just installed TVersity on the same server, with the same music library etc., and it works fine. With both of the servers running at the same time, TVersity will list the music just fine, whilst Asset gives the connection error listed above. Any ideas? Sounds like a bug sadly :-(

    One final test - just installed a fresh version of Asset 4 on a different machine - and got the same problem - XBox will see the server, but losses the connection straight away when trying to list albums.

    Spoon - looks like a bug I'm afraid. Has anyone got XBox360 working with Asset 4?

    Hello,

    I have the same problem : with Asset 4 on a fresh install of Windows 7 64bit, the Xbox 360 tells that the connection is lost when I try to list albums or whatever else.

    But the Marantz NA7004 works fine Asset 4.

    So I switched to Asset 3 to bypass the problem : both Xbox 360 and Marantz NA7004 work fine.

    With the hope that a solution could be found...

    I have exactly the same thing on my WHS 2011. Try to access library of FLAC files (Set to play as Wav), server connection is lost. To test connectivity I added a MP3 file to the library and was able to play if from the Server itself (not via Asset).

    Spoon, any timescales on 4.1? Is there somewhere that I can get v3 in the meantime?
