It doesn't matter what file system it's got, Media Connect/Player shares the files with the Xbox, the Xbox doesn't interact with the drive directly. [Edited on 20-06-2009 by James_DT] ive set media sharing to share the folder the films are in, but it doesnt appear. ive also plugged it straight into the xbox and watched a film. i dont know why its not appearing :(

	It does matter what file system the hard drive is running if he's trying to connect the external drive to the xbox, hence why I said NTFS isn't supported if he tries this.

	the hard drive is connected to my laptop. the xbox finds my laptop and the movies that are on it but doesn't find the external hard drive now. It found it the first time i connected the external drive to the laptop and i managed to watch a film off it.
