xbox 360 and iPod

My iPod mini worked just fine, but the next morning the battery was completely flat. Seems too much of a coincidence that I used it with the Xbox, fully charged, for about 40 minutes, unplugged it straight away and the next morning it was dead. I'm going to have to try it again and see what happens. I've also noticed that I can no longer fast-forward or rewind using the standard controls on the iPod, but I'm guessing that's unrelated because I think it was happening before.

Yes. Effectively that's how the USB support works for all connected devices ie if it can be seen as a hard drive, regardless of whether it's a camera, an mp3 player or a real hard disc, the 360 can read it's content.

Doesn't the hdd need to be formatted in a special way? The 360 won't read ntfs for instance.
 
thats probs why mine doesnt work then. i got a few folders on it with stuff in, and 1 folder with all my music on. but the file system is NTFS

How does it read stuff like pictures or music from you PC then? Or is that something different?
 
good point, as all my drives are NTFS. but it uses media connect so i guess theres somethin in that, that lets it read them

I would assume it only reads fat16 and fat32. I don't think any mp3 players or storage cards/usb memory sticks etc can be formatted with ntfs.

Yeah the media connect software will do the reading of the data from the disks and whack it out to the 360. I assume thats one of the reasons for using it and no just random shares instead.
