Hi,
Im thinkin about buying the Xbox Elite which comes with 120Gb Hard Drive but I'm wondering will it play divx films - I've read it does & I've read it doesn't so.....
Also if it does play them can they be stored on the 120Gb hard drive - I have also read this can & cannot be done....?

I'm confused!

So if anyone knows for certain coud you help me out please-Thanks

If I remember correctly, 360 only supports .wmv I believe. I don't recall mp4's even working but they may.

So, you would have to use a converter program to go from DivX to .wmv, thus losing a bunch of quality. I had a free program to do this, but it expired so I deleted it. Look around for a good free file converter somewhere on the net.
I currently download DivX torrent movies and would love to actually see them played on 360 in DVD quality. So far they are very blotchy and of low quality when I play them on an lcd tv through 360.
