xbox media centre
ok i have the pimped version on my xbox. linked in via 108 MB wireless to my main pc and am sharing all my video files. problem is that when i pick the video or audio file it plays for 5 mins approx and then stops. i have set all the caches to max size but i am doing something fundamentally wrong. frigged if i can think of what it is. can anyone shed any light.
cheers

I run exactly the same version of XMBC, which works very well streaming DivX, MP3s or even VOBs, etc. over 54Mb 802.11g using a standard SMB share (which I believe is what is recommended as the 'best' method of streaming over LANs).
No problems at all - which I know doesn't help.... but it certainly should work.
I had stop/start jerkiness issues over 802.11b, but swapped out and made the network 100% 11g and all is fine...
Are you connecting using an SMB share, or something else?

standard smb share. checked the rest of my settings but still cutting out after 5-6 mins of play. i still get alot of stutter with vob files even after caching. think i will disconnect and do it all from scratch again

bring the cache level up in media centre and watch what that it's doing ? it sounds to me like you have a connection speed problem.

hmmmm........caches all set to maximum atm. i have checked the connection and all seems fine. strange that it is both video and music files that do the same. i have a netgear mimo wireless router and am using a smc 108g wireless bridge. firmware in both are up to date. can't think of anything else. maybe try one of the xbox forums as well.
