Title: New User - need assistance with Streaming, XBOX, Roku...
Post by: celloshred on April 23, 2013, 01:58:16 AM

Here are my specs:

 

LS Pro Duo (RAID1): 1.62 Firmware

PC: Win 7 64Bit

Other devices:  AppleTV, Roku 2XD, XBOX 360, Android Devices

 

I cannot figure out how to get streaming on all of these devices.  I do have WebAccess set up which sorta solves the PC/Android but not the others (AppleTV, Roku,XBOX)

 

Even for my PC/Android, the Album and Movie art is not showing or I just dont know how to set it up.  Music should have the id tags but my movie files are just the movie files (I dont know How to get the art set up, where to put it, etc).

 

How can I get basic help?

Did you turn on the "Media Server" under "Extensions"?

yes, I have webacess up and running.   Im able to use the app on my android devices (wish it showed the thumbnails) but I can view the movies/audio through Windows Media Center on my laptop and XBOX when Im home (of course).

 

Still no connection through Roku or AppleTV.  Mostly interested in the Roku connection but I havent figured it out.

On your XBOX, if you install XBMC and under add video files, go to: Windows SMB, find the NAS and then file the directory to be searched. On your Apple TV, if jailbroken, you can do the same.

dumb question, how do I install XBMC and how would it be different than using WMC?  I guess its just bypassing my PC?
