im just putting this topic out there because it might be a nice feature for xbmc. at the moment im working on a feature in xbmc caled xbmc tv so i wont be able to participate but i thought that it might be nice to be able to liston to music from a samba share while playing games. firstly before anyone says it, it would be handy because the pc with your music might be in another room in your house or something so you might not be able to liston to music from a media player like winamp while playing games. im talking about games which allow you to play the music stored on your xbox hard drive. im not sure were the origional xbox microsoft stored this music or in what format so bear with me. if its possible that the games play lots of formats not just tied down to one you could build some type of shortcut folder of the origional microsoft dashboard folder where this music was stored on the hardrive. the shortcut would be to the samba share which the music is located so the game would see the music files as if they were in the folder. i have no knowledge of how this may be done or if its even possible to create the share folder even if the game will play files such as .mp3 format or other formats but i just thought its an idea.

this idea faces same problems as playing games over network although your idea has yet another problem. let's start with the first problem.
a game. when a game (or any other app) runs on xbox, this alone is what is running. xbox1 operates with a single cpu thread. the moment you start a game from xbmc, xbmc ends, and the game now has sole "possesion" of xbox resources.
and a game only supports what it was programmed to do, read files from d:\
what bioses do is map d:\ to the folder where you launch the game from, fooling xbox it's the dvdrom.

granted, something similar could be done on bios level for smb access, but noone has done this, which leads me to believe it's not possible. besides, 100mbit (max 10mb/s) isnt really fast transfer.
now to the soundtracks. xbox soundtracks are always in an xbox wma format. again, you would have to remap the soundtrack folder to a smb share and keep music there in a compatible format.

smb would require you to squeeze a smbd (client) into the bios, which i guesstimate would make min bios size 1024kb
anyho
moving since this isnt xbmc related in any way whatsoever
