Now you can play divx files. I have some 1080i videos I wanted to play through my xbox media center but original xbox cant do it, this can!

Ripped hd dvd as well of course its not the real hd but its 8gb and its close enough.

 

I've been tryin like a mofo to convert a divx file to a window media format, now i dont have to!

 

Now the porn collection on my portable hard drive is good to go!

 

can you play divx files over the network? ive heard conflicting reports.

 

Now they can rebrand it XXXbox360.

 

Nice.

 

Very bueno. Time to really use the 360 as a Media Center.

 

Nice...now where's my DVR?

 

Yeah you can. I just downloaded an episode of heroes and it played fine.
What you do is go into videos and then press change source (x button) then you can choose your share files. I set a couple folders to be shared by adding them to my windows media plaeyer. I dunno about macs though.

They said that files converted with older divx codecs might not work though. I have run into that though.

 

I use Connect360 to share media from my Mac with my Xbox. Connect360 doesn't yet support DivX but I'm sure they'll have an update by the weekend.

I had just read something about DivX not working with Media Center Extender or something. I dunno.

Anyway, that's awesome. Time to hook my Xbox back up.

 

^^Hmmm maybe that was pre update or they haven't gotten around to changing it on PC's. I never used my media extender. I dont remember exactly what I did (I thought I set it to share on windows media player but just checked and that wasnt it) but the xbox picks up my windows xp pro machine but only 3 of the folders which are labeled music and tvshows but not the others. Hmmm I dunno.

But microsoft makes you download some gay zune player if you want to set your media library to share with xbox 360. I am sure there are alternatives its just like you I just brushed the dust off of my xbox 360 so i havent bothered to check.

 

anyone else having problems with xbox live with the update?? i can't even sign in

 

A lot of people are.

 

Haven't been able to get into and CoD games. Weird.... it takes at least a minute to get into a game, then there are only me and maybe 3 other people. A little while after that the stupid pop-up message "Game lobby closed" shows up. Happened about 4 games in a row already, still trying.

 

COD does that sometimes, it was doing it over the weekend too

 

so this is why cod isnt working for me...
