Okay guys ..managed to optimize my 360 for viewing avi's...just activated the QoS o my Linksys (DD-WRT).Now its kay.....but need to disable if wanna go surfing ....but need to tweak here and there a little more...

guys... any one knows where can i buy the remote control for media center for PC?

Get it from Vertex at Lowyat. The remote control by itself you probably need to order. If you buy any of the Hauppage MCE kit tuners it'll come with it.

anyone tried the new tversity media server? i find it kinda tedious to set it up without proper guides from their own webpage unlike transcoder360

Got this from the Futuremark forum, thanks to ptaaty

Steps:
1. Ensure your x360 can actually see your Windows XP PC (you have windows media connect, and can stream music, etc)
2. Download the latest version of TVersity http://www.tversity.com/
3. Install.
4. Ensure TVersity service is stopped (start, programs, tversity, tversity tools, stop server)
5. download this http://s3.amazonaws.com/download.tve...ch_0_9_8_4.zip
6. unzip and place files in the media server folder in the default install path (\program files\TVersity)
7. Ensure Windows firewall is off or ensure port 41952 is allowed to pass. see http://tversity.com/faq.html#troubleshooting-faq for more issues.
*for me this was the stumbing block...I already had a hardware firewall, but my x360 could not see the server until I disabled the windowsxp one.
8. Start Tversity server and add folders to library that you want to share.
9. Go to the x360 and under connections, disconnect the PC, then when you click music, vids, or pics, the TVersity will show up.
10. On your x360 and go to videos. When you select it, if you did everything properly you should see something like "Tversity Server on XXXX" XXXX is computer name.

Common issues:
1. Codecs not installed...ensure that you have WMP 11 with codecs of things you want to transcode (ie install DIVX codec pack)
2. Wrong rez: go to the Transcoder settings on TVersity program, choose output rez.

I can see tversity server on my 360 but i cant connect, said got firewall blocking. I've already turned off windows firewall and forward the port on my router but still cannot connect

i try the tversity software, my xbox can succesfulyl deteched it. but the software onmy inxp always crash after certain amount of time ;(

Its still in in Beta lah i guess....wait atleast another 6 months then try the smotthen version....

ok the real time transcoding not working for me, but if its an encoded wmv files, it streamed nicely, very slow though

If you got P3 PC then is the minimum req....T360 and my P3 pc- need to run the whole movie thru first then play it again so that i can watch the movie wirhouy any glitch and slowdown....P4 HT technolgy is needed for a nice on the fly encoding.

i think i passed the requirement, somewhere middle.

AMD 2500+
1G Ram
300G Hdd x 2 Sata
Win XP Pro

Nope...u need the current gen processors...Intel HT tech the least....to get true real time encoding to your 360...

Your spec is just nice for WinXP MCE + Transcode360

anyone has a working Vista MCE + Xbox 360 for DiVX and etc.

i can get WMV/WMA to works flawressly though.
T360 wont work on Vista, tested

vista MCE? got meh? i know 1 person who explores vista day and night... just pm bro cylon

vista has built in MCE functionality

just a question....

if got xbox 360 oredi why still want a MCE?

^ I think only Vista Ultimate has MCE.

Guys, i just update my windows media player to version 11.0.5721.5145


Now i can share music,video,photo...without the need of MCE!


Is this new or its old feature that i didn't know?

they put that feature in since WMP11... and the last dashboard update added the 360 side of the feature. i removed it already coz when u share, windows media connect runs in the background and i hv no control over it. i dont stream all the time and i hv limited ram, switched back to wmp10 + wm connect.
