Today i am so happy but sad at the same time. like many others, I have been
trying to get my videos to stream from my Windows Vista computer to my xbox
360. I found and tried every format of video there was, put it in the shared
folder, and tried it one after the other on my xbox. The only one i found to
work was ,of course, a windows made Windows Media Audio/Video file (WMV).
This was one file i encoded my self.
This is why im sad. To encode one AVI "Family guy" episode (aprox. 30min)...
it took about 1.5hrs (3x's the show time). But if thats what it take to get a
HD video to use for right now... thats what im going to do. untill Windows
makes it where we can use other formats ex.(AVI, Divix,Xvid, ect...) we will
have to use this i guess.
Soooo. For those of you who want to do what i did. Go to the windows
downloading site and download the 'Windows Media Encoder 9 Series'

I hope this might help some to use there videos for now
Your friend dave
p.s. if you find a way to use other formats without deleteing programs, tell
me please.
