Exclamation Accessing movies (from xbox) on external HD connected to computer
So, I connected my Xbox to my computer and enabled sharing so i can access music/pictures/movies from the xbox console. However, I have a ton of movies on my external HD that is connected to my computer that I want to be able to access from the xbox. anyone know how to do this?

i tried right-clicking the folders in the ext HD and enabling sharing over the network, but that didn't work.

You can only access the vids, pics and music on your computer if there in the my pictures or my music and my videos folders. try connecting the harddrive to the 360.

This. Also why not just configure WMP11 to monitor your ext HD folders?
