Anyone using Connect 360. It allows you to stream content from your MAC to the 360. I only have the demo, it is a little buggy but works. I can access my iTunes but cant see my podcasts like TRS or Diggnation, But a work around is to but the download in the My Movies folder and I can stream it to my TV pretty cool. Can not stream my iTunes DRM music:(, but there is a work around.
Anything else out there doing this to connect my Mac to the 360?
thanks

Used the demo but stopped using it since I got my Apple TV.

I would like an Apple Tv, but I do not have an unlimited cash flow. My next Apple purchase will be an iPhone:), then a new 24" iMac, then maybe an Apple TV. Man I should have bought Apple Stock in '98 when it was $30 bucks...damn.

Yeah Brant, I use Connect360 on my Mac. That's how I watch TRS sometimes in the living room. Like you said sometimes I either have to restart the Xbox or dld the larger QT file to get to play. But for the most part it works great. I use it mostly to stream podcasts and sometimes to listen to music.

So with this 360 connect could I hook up a 360 to my media center PC and get screen caps and in game video off the 360 and store it on my PC?

I do not know about the screen caps. If I was going to do it I would hook my Video camera to the outs of the Xbox and record. That way I could firewire into my MacBook and FCP for some editing. I was thinking about doing some fun green screen stuff and put myself into the game for a cool video.
