if u guys have Vista beta 2/RC1/RC2 then they have MC installed already

i've tried using Vista's MC & my 360 together it didn't work coz Vista is US region while my xbox360 is Jap region

my Vista MCE work flawressly with my Xbox though, but i cant seem to stream divx and etc to xbox except mp3, wmv and wma.

now who has XP MCE 5?

OT:

stumbled upon some game anagram thread in a forum somewhere (news from kotaku).... they even got fake covers for it... forget where adee, will post it once i find it back. so i kinda plagiarised their pic

gears of war = aware frogs

just wondering can get xbox/xbox 360/pc with mce to do tivo/astro max frunctions?

Yup. Can. Follow terrencey's guide to get the EPG working. You'll need an IR blaster too (comes with some TV Tuner cards).

will work exactly like astro max?

Yeah. Minus the sluggishness.

Probably u're using older version of Vista Beta..probably Beta 2. Tested both MCE and WMC, and MCE are better than Windows Media Connect though streaming WMV movies to the 360. Btw...my 360 are Asian. If u want got myself another official copies of RC1.

sounds great coz i'm not really willing to pay them for that astro max decoder, the pricing and specs is such a scam!

but does it have one touch programming and integration into astro?

e.g. if i wanna record Sienfield do i just select it from the menu or state the start and end time of the show like during VCR days?

You can select from the EPG, provided you've already configured the EPG before hand.

what is EPG, sorry i am quite a n00b at this

EPG is Electronic Programming Guide, the guide you see on when you press Guide button on your Astro remote.

cool so how do i find this terrency's guide?

That would be on his blog:

interesting stuff but gotta get hardware for it.
i thought can convert the xbox

Do we need to do it manually everytime? (deleting cache) No other way round?

Hmmm I didn't have to do any manual cleaning. Check the settings.

Hi,

Could anybody here tell me how to stream non-wmv movies to the 360?

I have Tversity installed on my computer, alas on my 360 there's no 'Computer' option under Videos on the Media blade.

Is it my dashboard needs updating or do I miss something?

Thanks.

Check your firewall. Maybe its blocking 360 from accessing your pc. Just disable it for awhile and try again on your 360.

guys, i just installed tversity last night, well, it really a straight foward steps, install-reboot and start sharing, straight away x360 detect it. Anyway, not all videos can be stream, most of my avi(divx) cannot pass it, do i need to install certain codec to stream the divx?
