Adding WMA files to Xbox without using official dashboard...
Is there any possible way to add WMA files to the Xbox without using the xbox to rip them from CD's? I noticed that once I created a Soundtrack called "Kris Music" and ripped some tracks from CD's which I own that the files are stored as WMA's in E:\TDATA\fffe0000\Music\0000. This may be different on other xboxen, but I would assume that it is the same. Anyway, I want to be able to play "Tony Hawk 4" with some new tracks because the built in tracks are getting old. I added "Stone Temple Pilots - Core" and some others to my "Kris Music" soundtrack, but I have 10 gigs of WMA/MP3 files on my PC that I would love to transfer over to the xbox. Any ideas? I know that the files are stored in the format 00000000.wma -> ffffffff.wma so I tried to add an Alice in Chains track from my PC renamed to coincide with this naming scheme. I think I named it as 0000001b.wma because the tracks I added before went up to 0000001a.wma but the track did not appear in my "Kris Music" soundtrack. I assume that this has to do with an entry added to the database file in E:\TDATA\fffe0000\Music (i forget the name of the file, but something like music.db). Any suggestions would be appreciated because I would love to develop some type of tool to inject the added files into the database so that the Xbox can play them as part of the soundtrack. Thanks guys...
