Xbox 360 Media Center not seeing Network Drives with Videos.

[Landon]

I have installed Media Center 2005 Rollup 2 on my computer. I have also got a NAS drive which contains all my music, video and pictures. There is a XBOX 360 with me which is networked with CAT5 to a router. Everything was working properly from last couple of months and I also had Windows Media Player connect and have been using the Xbox 360 to view videos from the network drive that I have. The network drive is shown as \\SYN\Video\ and all the libraries/folders in the videos section and the same is also appearing on my media center pc.After that I downloaded and installed some Windows Update for Windows Media Player 11 and from that day, I am not able to see the \\SYN\Video folder on the Xbox 360 media center, all I get is local video folders. I have done a lot of troubleshooting to fix this problem but now I am out of luck, so is there anybody who can share some fixes for this issue?

Did you make sure that the NAS box that you are using is sharing content via SMB, which is what the below paths indicate or UPnP?

I was having the same issue, and my setup is Media Share which is on the XP home service pack 2 files located on Windows 2000 Server and when I followed the above link then my issue got resolved.
