Will we ever see Divx/Xvid support no the xbox 360 via the Media Center
Extender? Transcoding it via transcode360 is a very inefficient work around
for this. I would love to see Native Support for these types of files.

given the basis for divx\xvid is hacked drivers and the prevalence of
distribution of copyright material by this format I doubt M$ will stand such
an DRM issue in a 'straight out the box' manner....
