Title: Zune hack?
Post by: soulcancer on December 14, 2007, 12:59:02 am

there is a hack out there that lets the zune act as a portable hard drive. will this hack let MC sync with the new zune 80? or will any of the hacks out there let you sync the zune 80 with MC?

You could try it to see if the files you put on it are recognized by the Zune.  If so, we could probably get it to work.

Cut 'n Paste from:
http://dailyapps.net/2007/11/hack-attack-use-your-zune-2-as-a-flash-drive/

Make sure your Zune is not plugged in and your Zune software isn’t running
Open up Regedit by going to the start menu and selecting “run”. Type regedt32 and hit “OK”
Browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\ControlSet002\Enum\USB\
Search for “PortableDeviceNameSpace”. This should be contained in the Vid_####&Pid_####\########_-_########_-_########_-_########\Device Parameters within the above …\USB\ The ##’s listed here will be numbers and letters specific to your Zune.
Change the following values:
EnableLegacySupport to 1
PortableDeviceNameSpaceExcludeFromShell to 0
ShowInShell to 1
Plug in your Zune, and make sure the Zune Software starts up.
Hopefully at this point you can open up “My Computer” and browse your device, though it does NOT show up as a drive letter.
