Does anyone out there have any knowledge about sharing digital media libraries on Vista with the Xbox 360? When you first launch Media Player 11 it shows a picture of the 360 (and other devices) and talks about the using the Library Sharing feature.
When I setup the Library Sharing according to the documentation, I am unable to get my Xbox 360 to see the Vista PC. I'm sure its not my network though (my setup already works with Windows XP SP2 via Media Connect 2.0). Also, I have turned of the Windows Firewall in Vista and that didn't solve the issue either.
Please Help!

How to Share Digital Media with Xbox 360?
Not supported under Vista yet.

Not supported under Vista yet. Check in the Vista February CTP. -- True. You would (I suspect) also need to install the Media Center Extender
feature for your XBOX360 (it's not installed by default), and you would also need to have the hard drive installed.
Will there also be a way to enable existing Windows XP PCs to function as Media Center Extenders (primarily those PCs on the workgroup or household LAN running Windows XP Professional or better)?
