Evox to Avalaunch Dashboard

[dragerman1973]

I am having problems with avalaunch with setting up my connection to the xbox. I use a x over cable driect connection with flashFXP and use the same data in the XML document as i put in flashFXP and it does not want to connect. I was using evox before. Here is what i have in the XML for settings.


IP 192.168.0.1
subnet 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.0.1

please help

whats the ip address of the pc?
assuming u have winxp
goto start ,run type cmd and press enter.
then type ipconfig..and press enter
u should have

Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:

Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.2
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0

 

[dragerman1973]

yes that is correct, that is what I have

 

[sb122606]

so when u fire up the xbox can you ping 192.168.0.1 from the pc?

 

[dragerman1973]

yes, i had everything runnung fine with evox. I thought that I could use the same ip, subnet etc as i did in the ini file for the evox settings?

 

[sb122606]

ok no firewalls!!
sounds like a username password thing to me..
by default its
username Default (note capital D)
password (leave blank)

or edit the xml file and set up your own username/password
find the line and set it as
<user name="xbox" password="xbox">

its located immediately under quickstart portion of the xml.

then open internet explorer and type ftp://xbox:[email protected]

if that opens it then set the user/pass on flashxp to match.

 

[dragerman1973]

I think you solved my prob, i was using xbox for both username and password. I will give it a try. Thanx. I will let you know if it works.

thanx again

I tried all that you mentioned and no go

Drag, can you still FTP in Evox? If so then it is just the settings in Ava that need to be changed. Confirm that, and your ava settings again, (i'm sure you've changed them since last posting) and we can help ya.

Just a stab in the dark...then i have to go to bed.

I can't try this as i don't have my xbox at the moment..but i use cuteftp and my setting has PASV turned off.
Just for a laugh disable PASV on your ftp client

Not sure why i turned it off on mine as it was a long time ago but give it a go.

Drag, Do a copy and paste of your Evox.ini file (Just the network section)
and then a copy and paste of the Avalaunch.xml file (network section)

Quote them into the forum and we can look at them. If evox works and ava doesn't then the key lies therein.

*EDIT* you could always just do the FTPing you need to, from Config Live.

Bingo.

in ava.xml change dhcp to static
and change both dns entries to 0.0.0.0

 

[dragerman1973]

P.S. Now is there any way i can get the xmas display of the chick in the santa outfit off of the start-up screen just before the dash loads up?

 

[sb122606]

Nice

I've read somewhere that, that is a custom image somewhere in ava's file system. you can replace the image with something else. Play around and see if you can find it. Setup evox as your second boot priority, that way, if you screw up ava it will boot into evox and you go "OOPS!" and undo what you just did.

 

[sb122606]

Absolutely right ...
take any image.. name it bootimage.png and save it to the root of your HDD
