Songs on HDD don't show up ?!?! Why ?

Hello,

I have a whole bunch of songs which I transferred into my HDD via FTP. F>music.

But when I go into XBMC and go into my music the songs don't show. They're all .MP3

Why is this.

Thank you

Try doing this. Click "Add folder", and browse to F:\Music. Or wherever it is stored. XBMC needs to know were the files are saved to open them, it doesn't just know.

 

What do you mean. But when I put my vids in the vids folder it works fine.

 

XBMC doesn't know were the music files are. You have locate that. When you go to the Music section of your dashboard, click "Add Files" or something along those lines. Then you will have to browse for were the music files are stored on your Xbox. In this case, it would be F:\music. After you have that selected, you can click "Ok" or "Add". Now you should have a folder named "music" or the name of were the files are stored.

 

Ok, let me go try. Oh and what movie is your sig from ?

 

Hot Fuzz. Aw man that movie makes me laugh hard.
Anyways, keep me updated.

 

When I go into XBMC I go into My music and from there into F drive and then in into music but theres nothing in there and I don't see add file

 

Wait, its ok. I just had to rescan the HDD. Thank you for you help.
