How to stream Music / Radio stations from your PC to your Xbox - Zoid Reborn - 04-10-2013
*Note that this method will not work with songs purchased over iTunes.
Hello everyone, this will be my first tutorial here, so I'm going to try and keep it simple and easy to follow.
Requirements:
TVersity
Xbox 360
Internet connection
Step 1:
Install Tversity. You can download TVersity from the official website here: http://tversity.com/download - Download the basic version. When instally it will ask for a product key, the easiest way to bypass this is use the key "000-000-000-000". You will also have to enter your email address.
Step 2:
Once you have installed TVersity, go to the Settings Tab in TVersity. You will not need to edit anything here unless there is something you want to edit, however I recommend the default settings. For Media Playback Device, you can leave it as Auto-Detect or set it to Xbox 360. Either will work. Then click Start Sharing and accept any prompts that appear.
Step 3:
Make sure you know where all your music is stored (tip: you can play radio stations with the same method by downloading the .pls file from websites like TuneIn). Go to the Library tab in Tversity, click Add File / Folder and select your music directory.
Step 4:
Once your music directories are listed in the Library Tab click the Refresh button in the top left of Tversity. Once the refresh is complete (time varies depending on amount of files selected) then you have the hardest part done.
Step 5:
Turn on your xbox 360 and connect to xbox live (gold or silver account will work). Both the computer running TVersity and the xbox 360 must be on the same internet connection. Press the Xbox Guide button, scroll over to the right and click Select Music. Proceed to select "TVersity-PCName" then you can create a playlist or play all songs / radio station that are synced to TVersity.*
*If no songs appear then click the refresh button in TVersity or Restart Sharing in the settings tab.
If you are having any problems with the tutorial please post below and and I will try my best to help.
I hope this tutorial helped. I use this since I don't like plugging my iPod into my xbox and I have much more songs on my laptop. Not everyone may want to use this, but for those who wanted to, now you can!
