12: Front-ends for your media server: Video Game Systems

Edit: July 26, 2022. This episode seems to be missing from YouTube as well. I’ll try to hunt it down, but no promises. 

Find out how to access your media server using your XBox 360 and Sony PS3. It’s actually easier than you think. Sit back and enjoy our final installment of our front-end series. Next week, something completely different.

Fantastic episode, though I personally go through Video Library on my 360. My wireless network, for whatever reason, isn’t strong enough to pump through Media Center, but Video Library works just the same (for me).

Question, though: Do you know how to get folder art to show up using Video Library (or browsing through the same way on the PS3)? That’s one thing that’s really been bugging me and I would love to be able to figure it out.

For folder art, I suggest using the MyMovies plugin. It will grab all the art for you: http://www.mymovies.dk/
