Came up with a cool use for the Card Export program and the Xbox 360!
 
From the title alone you may already know where this is going ;-) If you don't have Card Export, and you DO have a MicroSD card - get it!

If you have a xbox 360, you may know that you can plug USB Mass storage devices (USB Hard drives, flash drives, mp3 players, etc) into any of it's USB ports, and the 360 will stream media (Photos, videos, and audio) off it. It's quality is great, and it streams video / photos in high definition - up to 1080p (and with the fall update, it will do 1680 x 1050 to on VGA for 22" widescreen monitors etc). With audio - it does nice visualizatons too, and if you hit the "guide" button while in a game you can control the music too to provide your own background music (it also allows for independent volume adjustment, track changing, etc etc). It's real slick...

Well it dawned on me when I plugged in my phone to my 360 via mini USB to charge it, that if I flipped Card Export on, the phone's MicroSD card becomes a USB mass storage device... got curious and, sure enough, if you enable Card Export while it's hooked up to a 360, you can stream media of the MicroSD!!!

It works GREAT just like any other mass storage device! Now all the Picture's I've saved on my phone I can view on the TV in HD, plus all the MP3's etc I've saved on their I can play thru my surround :-D

Only thing that didn't work that I hoped it would, was 3g2 / 3gp cellphone video. No go on that. Oh well. It will play the other video format though yay!

I guess this isn't much of a hack, just putting two and two together, but maybe someone else can use this idea :-D
Say thanks if applicable ;)

Pretty cool idea. I never thought of connecting the two.

I could never get card export to work, windows would recognize my phone, but for some reason I could never access it, what version of card export are you using?

ver 3.13, latest off their site. I know earlier builds were problematic with the Titan. I'd try the new build.
