Xbox 360 owners can now stream DivX (and XviD)
movies to the next-gen system using a Media Center. In short, the modification doesn't actually stream DivX, rather it
converts the file format to a WMV on the fly.From the article: "The core process for accomplishing this is taken from a thread found on the XBox forums : Playing DivX movies without having to Re-encode, through media centre. this works fine, but has the disadvantage that you have to manually set up the encoding process on your Media Center and then move over to the XBox 360 to watch it. so all this article really does is provide an MCE interface so you can control everything from your XBox 360 being used as an MCE Extender. i.e. its for lazy people."
Modders, have at it.
