Tivo and xbox360?

Anyone tried playing tivo files through their xbox360? (with or without Windows Media Center?)

The XBoX 360 will only see other Pc's (the pc's must also be running a version of "windows media connect") I have tried hooking up them both through my network and also with a direct usb connection.

The 360 will only stream music and pictures (not video) from a Pc, It must be a "MCE" to stream video.

Yes i saw the media connect software. Unfortunately you need service pack2 which, when installed, kills my tivo desktop software and all tivo2go functions. Oh well. Thanks for the reply.

Just a little fyi. After the fall update you now do not need a computer running windows media center to stream video, But you can only play videos of the wmv format.

Is there some way to get Tivo desktop to output wmv files ? I have the paid version that does the conversion for portable devices.

No. You need to convert with Windows Media Player to import to your portable player.
