Streaming media to xbox 360

[Enfer Singe]

Alright, I have been trying for a while to stream media from my computer's external hard drive to an xbox 360 so I could watch videos and stuff on the T.V. however all attempts have failed. I have tried multiple methods given on xbox.com (one, two, and another one that I cannot find right now in which you plug an ethernet cable directly from the computer into the xbox). I have tried using both the zune software and WMP 11 but the xbox doesnt seem to show up in either of them. The things I have are a computer (running windows tablet pc edition) + external hard drive, router, and xbox 360. Thanks for the help.

Interesting, it should work using those methods. Get MCE.

If you want to record TV ala Tivo, MCE is fine (although Beyond TV is much better IMO -- less restrictive and more extensible), but if you just want to stream video get tversity. TVersity even lets you stream DivX/Xvid, which MCE does not.
