Only some of my movies play on XBOX Windows Media Center
I have all of my DVD's backed up onto my computer and I use Windows Media Center as my personal movie jukebox. I have set my XBOX up as a Media Center Extender in hopes of watching my movies through that. Unfortunately only a small portion of my movies show up on the XBOX.
I use Magic DVD Ripper to rip all my DVD's to my computer. In the early days of my ripping I was only ripping a MPEG-2 file of the movie itself with out any of the movie title screens. Later I realized I could back up the DVD which allows me to essentially have the true DVD on my computer and it works great with WMC on my PC. Although the only movies I can seem to see when I log in to the XBOX is the few MPEG-2 files I have.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,

Re: Only some of my movies play on XBOX Windows Media Center You need to use a format that the Xbox can read, WMC can read more file types than the Xbox can.

Re: Only some of my movies play on XBOX Windows Media Center You dont happen to know what kind of files the XBOX reads or where i can find that list? It would be nice to still have scene selection on the XBOX not to mention have to have two files for every movie in my library...over 2TB already.
