Need help with new location to boot up in XBMC

Post by Jerry98vert »

Been trying to find this question but I give up and thought I would ask here, I had great help in the past on this website. I have a 500gb new hard drive everything works great all my emulators are on the F drive. I have folders called (in the F drive) like Arcade, Emulators and a few others, so all I want to do is when I turn on the xbox I want it to go..........say......Arcade directory in the F drive right away is this easy to do?????? Right now it goes to the home page then I have to pick programs then I have it set to see the F drive then I have to pick the directory I want and then I can pick the game console then the game.

thanks to anyone that can point me to a post or just help me out. :D :D

Upgrade to the newest XBMC4XBOX. Version 3.5 Beta 3 is out now. It is basically a finished project. The weather problem was an issue showing "Busy" prior to 3.5 beta 2. Problem has been fixed in the subsequent versions.

No. Download the newest version from here. http://www.xbmc4xbox.org.uk/forum/viewt ... ?f=9&t=781. Unzip this file onto your PC, remember where you put it.

On your xbox use a different dash such as UnleashX or EvoX for a moment.
On your xbox, find the IP address.
Use an FTP client program to access your xbox from your PC. (Filezilla, flashFXP are examples)
On your xbox, find where you have XBMC currently. Delete that folder.
FTP the new XBMC folder that you unzipped earlier from your PC to the xbox. Place it in the EXACT spot where your old XBMC was.

Call it done.
