Hi all,

Its me again! Just a problem of Windows Media Center. When I tried to watch my videos in Windows Media Center on the Xbox 360, I got the message, saying that I am missing the proper files to view the video. Also, It tells me to either reboot my computer or my Windows Media Center on the Xbox. I did and reboot the Windows Media Center firstly, still get the message. I reboot the computer then, but it didn't fix the issue.

PS: The video files are downloaded from a web in mp4 format.

Any suggesion?

Hi Suzett,

Welcome to this Windows 8 Forums.

The following tables list the different types of video and audio files that can be played on Xbox 360 when using it as Media Center Extender.

You might be able to play video or audio files that are in different formats on your computer that you might not be able to play when you use your Xbox 360 as a Media Center Extender. This is because codecs that are required to play back a particular audio or video file might be installed on your computer but are not available or installed on Xbox 360.

This also could be a problem with this early beta release of Win 8 CP. The next beta, Win 8 RP will be out on June 1st (rumored). Since this next beta will require a clean install, this may solve your problems. The apps will be more complete and the clean install will give you a more pristine installation. Just be aware that all installed apps will need to be re-installed as there is not upgrade path. Back up all your data first.
