Organising Cloudstation Pro Duo Library for Xbox 360 / DLNA?

I have been trying to figure out how to organise the CloudStation Pro library to show the correct folder structure when I browse from my Xbox 360. All I seem to get is one folder "Local Videos" folder and all videos in one directory.

 

Surely this isnt the only way I can view the videos from my Xbox / PS3 / TV?

 

Also, is there a way to remove certain folders from being served up? Currently ALL videos that it finds are added to one mammoth list. 

 

Thanks

Interesting - doing a search over at http://www.dlna.org/consumer-home/look-for-dlna/product-search" target="_self">http://www.dlna.org/consumer-home/look-for-dlna/product-search doesnt show the CS-WV as certified.

 

Anyone from Buffalo shed any light on this?

 

What features do we actually have to server DLNA content on the CS-WV?

Some more information on streaming via PogoPlug DLNA to an Xbox 360 - http://support.pogoplug.com/entries/22118528-streaming-to-xbox-360" target="_blank">http://support.pogoplug.com/entries/22118528-streaming-to-xbox-360

 

I'm guessing (because there is such little information on this) that PogoPlug is incorporated into the CloudStor by Buffalo and have no control over its functionality?

OK - more research and I've decided that organising content via DLNA/UPnP to an Xbox 360 is not actually possible. I would say that they have restricted this deliberately to make people use Windows Media Center. Even Twonky can't do it:

- Xbox 360 can accept pushed media, but only when it's in Media Center Extender mode and you have a Windows 7, Vista or XP Media Center Edition PC running on your network....- Xbox 360 does not display all of the items in the Twonky navigation tree. As a result, you won't see things like By Folder, Artist Index, Artist Album, Genre Index, Genre/Artist or Internet feeds like SHOUTcast, YouTube, Flickr, Picasa Web or PhotoBucket.
