Will my 360 play xvids that are burned onto a dvd? My 360 has never been hooked up to the internet so it has never had any updates done. Anyone know where there is a list of compatible file formats? If not what is a good programn to turn video files into wma files?

convert them to WMA, xbox doesn’t support avi/xvid/divx

Xilisoft Video Converter works great for this

edit: it’s either that one or Riverpast Video cleaner. Used one that worked great, the other sucked… can’t remember which (both are in the same folder and neither are installed at the moment)

With the December 4, 2007 update, Xbox 360 now directly supports streaming DivX AVI movies from your desktop. All you need is Windows Media Player 11 or the Zune software. I personally prefer Windows Media Player 11, because it also supports playing back Amazon Unbox videos on the Xbox 360.

Pretty easy to do

what? really?

I tried streaming avi files to my xbox but they wouldn’t even show up on the xbox/media center dashboard. Only the WMV files would.

maybe they used a different codec or something?
