Default Xbox360-XP(SP2)-MCE2005

Hello

Being one of the resident games potatoes I've got my Xbox using the music from my PC (XPSP2) ad all if working very well

I've just bought a new Media centre edition pc so the next thing is to get it steaming all my HD Avi's that the wonderfull Bittorrent allows me to steal from the interweb.

can my 360 work whilst connected to two pc's ? so under search fro music I'd have pc1 and pc2 or is this just going to give me a sore head for the next week :Confused:

Nice. I might have to invest in the Mac software to do the same.

You're obviously not streaming true HD as it would stutter like hell over wireless.

One episode of Lost HD is 3 - 5GB, can't be bothered doing the maths for 54MB wireless but it's a non-starter

54Mbps can do a theoretical 6.5MB per second now it will never do that in it's puff but that is the max. So even if your Lost Episode at 3GB (720P Episode should only be 600-1GB) per second that would be 1.25MB so it should manage that.

Anyway if I download a 3 min 220MB HD Trailer from Mircrosoft and then stream it to my 360 without stuttering then I say I streamed HD no Problem so

I'll let you now how the 1080i copy of spiderman 2 goes

Well you need 6mbps to stream HD (in theory) so good luck.

All I know is it was pants on mine
