Thanks to an incredible revalation I am able to watch movies, listen to itunes and look through my iPhoto collection all in the comfort of my living room on the big-screen and surround sound.
I’ve got an iMac G5 that is my permanent home computer, my MacBook Pro laptop and my girlfriends iBook that have heaps of data stored on them. Sitting in the comfort of my office watching a movie on my iMac’s beautiful screen isn’t necessarily a bad experience but lets face it - there’s nothing like a comfy couch.
The folks over at nullriver have put together an essential app called Connect 360 - http://www.nullriver.com/index/products/connect360 - that puts all of your movies, music and photo’s right into your xBox.
It’s simple to install on OS X and is just a preference pane that once registered.. well .. just works. When I say simple I mean it. Once you’ve registered just fire up your xbox and go to the dashboard and select any wifi (if your xbox has wifi) or networked sources and click play.
Easy as pie.
