Default Xbox360 - Good News For Mac Users

NullRiver Connect360: Stream media from Mac to Xbox 360
>> We already talked about TwonkyMedia as alternative for Windows Media Connect to stream your music and images (for video you still need Windows MediaCenter Edition of course) to your Xbox 360 from a Windows, Mac or Linux PC.
NullRiver's Connect360 is a new streaming application made specially for the Mac OS X 10.3.9 or later. Just like TwonkyMedia the application is not free, but there's also a trial version:

Your Xbox 360 is capable of playing back your music and viewing your digital photos and with Connect360 your Mac's ready to share.
Connect360 automatically indexes your iTunes and iPhoto libraries and shares them to your Xbox 360. You can then use the Xbox 360 Dashboard to browse and play your media, organized in the exact same way that it is on your Mac.

* iTunes smart
You can browse and play your iTunes music by song, artist, album, genre or playlist. As you add and remove content to your iTunes library, Connect360 keeps your Xbox 360 up to date!

* What formats are supported?
Connect360 currently shares MP3 audio files and JPEG photos to your Xbox 360. Because the Xbox is limited in playing back only these formats, we are working on an automatic conversion layer for the other formats.

* iPhoto in big
With Connect360, you can enjoy your iPhoto photo library on your television screen, especially beautiful in high definition. Browse by photo album or watch a slideshow, its all easy and fun!

*Wired or wireless
Connect360 works with both the Xbox 360 built in network port (wired) and the Xbox 360 WiFi adapter. Connect360 will automatically detect your Xbox 360 and your Xbox 360 will automatically detect your Mac running Connect360. Now that's friendship.
The built in Access Control List (ACL) feature allows you to easily limit what Xbox 360s can connect to your Mac.
