[QUOTE="ssimon, post: 50771, member: 20108"] CCXGUI does more than create shares, it "broadcasts" them via port 1400 TCP. On the Xbox I do not care about IP's, share names, server name or IP (pc running ccxgui), etc... it is all transparent and automated. Even if someone brings their Xbox to my house there is no need for them to configure anything, it just auto-detects everything and works Automatically! Shares should be created/maintained in ONE place, the server/machine hosting them, you should not have to do anything special on any of the one or more client systems accessing them! My argument is as follows: If dual manual configuration was so easy, why was DHCP invented? Same applies here! CCXGUI acts like a DHCP server and the XBMC (and hopefully Media Portal will soon) acts like a DHCP client! [/QUOTE]
