    Streaming from PC to Xbox 360 help!

    Hello.
    I'm trying to set this up but I am getting nowhere at all.
    I have Windows Media player 11 and in the Media Sharing option it is finding my Xbox but my Xbox is not finding my PC.

    How the fucking hell do I get this to work, I've been on hours??

    I get the 8 digit number from my xbox but no popup on my pc to tell me where to enter it.
    Its not finding my pc when I do a connection test???

    I've followed that exactly and its still not having it.

    I spent fookin hours myself before mate. But then yesterday i got a new router and it noticed it all straight away

    I use Tversity instead of windows media player for streaming. Its perfect.

    Window's media player 11 has it built in so he shouldn't need that.

    my 360 is wired and i have no problems so it probably wont be a router problem.

    I have a router but everything is wired into it as they're all close together. (too tight to buy a wireless adapter)
    Fuck knows. I've tried again today with no joy.

    When you go to play your first movie an update gets downloaded but besides that you don't need anything no.
