First off - you should burn your 360 and replace it with a myth frontend :)

j/k - I do not play games (well, Tiger Woods golf excluded), but I am
no 360 expert, but I know it can play 264/avi files - just not sure
exactly what options need to be used in the transcoding..  And of
course since it is windows, It will handle all of the _wmv_
containers....
