You can use any dash but XBMC4Xbox is already setup for 2 transfers so I usually just use that and keep UnleashX setup for maximum transfers when doing games/apps. Load up XBMC4Xbox and ftp to your hearts content

Install FileZilla as mentioned above but just keep the maximum simultaneous transfers to 2.

If you had it setup as only one connection you'd have each movie transferring at the full 10mb/s meaning it should be nice and quick and if you do get a drop on the network or something goes wrong you've only got that one file that needs doing again. You only need an error halfway through and you've got none of your 10 movies copied over.

If you imagine 10 movies ftp'ing over at 1mb/s each it's going to take the same amount of time to ftp but there's a much greater risk of something going wrong. You can only transfer at a maximum rate of 10mb/s so we don't want to be copying lots of files simultaneously as there's much more chance of something going wrong, you're better off just having one (certainly no more than 2) connections as this will use full bandwidth for your files. Load up UnleashX and all should be good to go.Ĭopying large files (such as music & videos): Go to Xbox Admin>System>Settings>Network>Set Max No Of Users to 10 Load UnleashX (if you used HeXEn to softmod it will be in your E:/Dash folder - just click on the. Go to Server>and make sure "Force showing hidden files" is ticked. Go to Edit>Settings>Transfers>File Types and set default type to Binary. Open up FileZilla and go to Edit>Settings>Transfers> and set maximum simultaneous transfers to 9. Install FileZilla, FlashFXP is ok but personally I have better results with FileZilla and it's free. This means you're copying 10 items at a time rather than one or two, obviously this is massively going to increase the speed of the transfer. If you're planning on ftp'ing lots of small files over then you want as many connections open as possible, the xbox can handle 10 simultaneous connections at any time. Below are the settings you should be using if you want the quickest ftp results:Ĭopying lots of small files (such as games/emulators/apps): So you're getting slow FTP speeds, there is a chance it could be a problem with your router/switch - ideally you should have your xbox connected directly to your router for best results and the occasional reboot of the router doesn't hurt. This question has been asked so many times that I've decided it deserves its own thread (as I can't be bothered to explain to people anymore!).
