Playing Divx on media center
Download Windows Media Encoder 9 from here and then Install.
Put your divx video in My Videos and then open up notepad, in the document write - mms://*INSERT PC IP ADDRESS*:8080 and then save your notepad file as *name of video*.asx
screen shot of what your notepad document should look like. (note ip address replaced with X's)
**for example if your video is called perfectdarktrailer.avi the notepad file would be saved as perfectdarktrailer.asx**
save the file to the directory of the video your wanting to watch.
Open up Windows Media Encoder
In the wizard dialogue popup box click Custom Session
In the sources tab change Source From to File and then browse and open up the video you want.
Use the other tabs to change the quality of the output. In this case we have set it as DVD quality video
When youre happy with your settings click apply and then start encoding.
Open up media center on your 360 and locate the .asx file and play it, you should now be able to watch it on your xbox 360 J
