Posts: 1   |  Watching AVI on my 360 So today I decided to try media center on my xbox and connect to my computer to watch my movies. So far I can view pictures and listen to my music on my xbox, however I can't watch any movies (in AVI format) since it's telling me that I do not have the required codecs. Clearly I have the correct codecs since I can watch these videos on my computer just fine... So do I need these codecs on my xbox as well? If so, how would I do this? Any help is much appreciated. |
