Extremetech has an article on how to turn your Xbox 360 into a media extender. As I have mentioned before, the Xbox 360 is the only version 2 media extender to work with Vista’s Media Center.
From the article:
Once you’ve configured the Xbox 360 and your PC, you can share almost any media on your computer right through the usually-superior speakers, video equipment, and other gear that comprises your entertainment system. It’s a great way to show photos to friends, watch digital video that you’ve uploaded from a camcorder, or listen to your favorite tunes. The 360 even ports over playlists from your PC, and you can create your own on the fly.
The article is a good step-by-step of how to setup the Xbox 360. Pretty basic stuff but worth reading nonetheless.

“you can share almost any media”
Yikes! Almost any media other than Xvid and DviX. Receiving streamed DRMed WMV is great and unique (for now), but no DivX/Xvid support is a big deal. As it stands, I bought a $35 DVD player to playback those file formats. Seems silly that my $400 box can’t do what this cheapie DVD player can. Oh yeah, sneakernetting it isn’t efficient. Come on, Microsoft - give us what we need.
