Microsoft XBox 360 UPnP support does not include support for MPEG Systems streams, instead requiring specific MS-approved containers, and does not include support for MPEG-2 or NuppelVideo coded video. (Yes, the XBox 360 DVD player plays MPEG-2 coded video, but obviously, anyone with MPEG-2 that's not on a commercial, encrypted DVD is engaging in nefarious activities.) http://blogs.msdn.com/xboxteam/archive/2007/11/30/december-2007-video-playback-faq.aspx You can make MPEG-2 coded video work by having a Media Center Extender that serves it (don't know if you could get that to work), or, you can have a Windows box running (a supported version of) Windows Media Player transcode it on the fly into a "Protected" WMV (i.e. WMV container with "approved by MS Windows Media Player" DRM tags inside). There are also other apps that can transcode to the appropriate format. The problem here is not Myth.
