DSM-G600, DNS-323 and TS-I300 Hack Forum

Hey all,

I acquired a D-Link DNS-323 and am now hacking at getting it to stream to my xBox 360.   I'm not a total Linux newb as I replaced Winblows from all my machines and have been using Debian full time for about 2 years now.  I have fun_plug working on it, and have also installed uShare (I used the pre-compiled one listed here instead of compiling it).  I have divided up the hard drives into a few different directories - one for all my documents and file archives I want to be accessible by the computers on my network, and one for the media I wish to stream.  My media directory is split up into three directories with the category being the directory names - "Music", "Photos", & "Videos".  I then split up those directories with subdirectories - music is split up by "Artist",  then "Album", occasionally "CD#".  The music for each is then placed into the last corresponding directory.  My Photo directory is split up into sub-directories by event.  The same applies to the videos directory.  Now, the music I can access the songs directly, but only by song directly (using "Songs" on my 360).  I can't access them by genre, artist, album, etc.  The photo's and video's I cannot see or access what-so-ever.  Any idea's what I've done wrong?

Two additions;

You can refresh the shared media indexing and adding new shares by connecting to;
http://[DNS IP Address]:[uShare port]/web/ushare.html

I have not tried this but have connected so it is there.

I have also built uShare for XBox streaming although no DLNA (PS3) support as of yet.

Check out the FW1.5 and ffp 0.5 uShare thread for details.

Also thanks to kh_naba as this thread solved a couple of issues with my build and I had been running this version of uShare on ffp 0.4 without an issue for a while.
