Just installed this ( dont have XBMC) and it says you can watch live and recorded tv, movies, music and photos.I'm having trouble getting videos to work when I go to 'media' on my x360 it only shows videos from my console harddrive. Any help? thanks
In my windows connect folder on my PC I have a number of folders (mostly my music/pictrues/videos) but can't access the video folder through my x360 because of reasons stated in the first paragraph.

I'm thinking about installing Media Centre Edition but really it's a complete waste of time.
Basically:
* You can't play video with Windows Media Connect
* Video streaming only works when you use Windows Media Centre Edition and a supported codec
* Supported codes are MPEG-1/2, WMV and DVR-MS
So basically all that ripped stuff you have in Divx or Xvid is pretty much useless. The only use for it would be so you can use a cheap (~$150) HDTV card in your PC instead of a $400 STB to watch HDTV.
