Well I set up my Media Centre on PC ok, did all the jumping thru hoops and updates to get the 360 and PC talking

Still the 360 will not read Video files from the PC, sees them but on trying to play just responds Codec missing!,

Am I missing something, as I cant figure it out, does the 360 play AVI Divx files), and if so is another codec needed

Anyone got it working advice would be appreicated

Thanks

Richard

I have my 360 and my PC hard wired to my router. My HTPC
runs wireless. I have no problems with playing files from either
computer. I can even get High Def TV from the HTPC with
a good clear signal. I don't believe the 360 plays Divx or MP4.
I will have to check again.

i doubt the 360 will play divx unless they have licensed the codec.. I havent tried yet but i would say not.. thats why i love my xbox 1 so much.. Will always have that to hang onto..

let us know if anyone has a full list of 360 compatible media. (divs, xvid, wma etc etc).

cheers,

Fh
