thanks reffyyy, got my n900 to show up in the xbox at least, but the damn thing still wont show my media, i've updated / rebuilt the tracker, had a leafpad through it and looked thoroughly confused, and anything else i can think of, the only error i get is when starting fuppes edit: ignore the error code, was a single space at the start of the vfolder, removing that removed the error, but never brought any of my music.

edit2: infact just ignore me altogether, after a few hours messing with leafpad, amending the vfolder, searching the internet, the reason the media wasn't showing was because you have to press 'v' in fuppes to build the 'virtual database' sorry. (self facepalm)
