DivX : Xbox 360 : help!
Hello All
I've asked a couple of times now, but that was an eternity ago in computer-land.
Is it possible to play DivX movies/TV Programs on the 360 yet? I don't want to mess around with converting them to some strange format that I can stream. My wife wont let me buy one until that happens ...
Thanks.
Steve

Yup, Transcode 360 will play just about everything, the files are converted on the fly at your pc and streamed to your 360 in a formtat it can read.
Works flawlessly and it's free.

I'm using transcode to send HD content form my PC to the 360 via transcode. The only problem I find is the sound is a little low at times but transcode can boost that.
It's a great piece of software

Never got TVersity to work 
Says it going on my PC, but the 360 can't see any videos.
Rumour has it that MS will be enabling DivX playing in a future dashboard update.

I've enabled UDP on the ports it suggests in the setup guide.

Removing the PC firewall did the trick for me.
Although I wish it (the 360) listed things in folders rather one great long list (blostered by the online feeds that TVersity adds by default). I have a list of 2049 films (950 of those are actually mine).
