i was given this Xbox Elite buy my son and I wnt to know before pulling the tv and stand out and messing with all the NEAT cables.
Is it possible to play movies from my PC that are RARed on an Xbox360 WITHOUT unpacking them, just like I do on my Xbox1 using XBMC ?

If not then I might as well stick with my Xbox1 as I only use it for a media center.

Thanks


no it is not possible.

cheers, so for me the OLD Xbox1 is better, no point going backwards on a newer machine. Maybe oneday somebody might port the XBOXmediacenter to the XBOX360 ????

possibly, but unlikely as the "Xbox Media Center" has dropped support for the Xbox, in my opinion rendering it "Media Center" (and also much less unique/functional)
