Post Xbox 360 Video Server, Media Server Preliminary Setup and Tests

Hey everyone. I have an xbox 360 and am interested in ways I can use it to play video from another machine.

I saw a post here by WBassett that covered the same topic for the PS3 - so I thought I would start one for the 360.

I should note that its January 2008 - and I'm noticing a few changes since I last tried to do any of this. Enough so that if you've played with this in the past, I'd encourage you to try again now - much has changed....

Also, as of around fall of 2007 - ALL new xbox 360's include an HDMI port for connecting to your HDTV - you can still use the previously available options - Video, s-video, component video, and VGA, in additon to HDMI...
