@dan Sorry, but no luck on Xbox. See the comment by @Chad about Connect360.

Hey robert, thanks for the great tutorial…I got all the way through and have mediatomb up and running with a database, but my xbox 360 is not seeing it… Looking into mediatomb’s official documentation, they say it’s not supported (read: I’m an idiot, I don’t know how I got all the way through installation and setup without noticing this little tidbit), but you suggested on here that you were giving it a try on a xbox 360. Any luck?

@Steven Daniels,
I’m working on transcoding too. As soon as I have some time to test, I will post a new article.

What about transcoding? Did you enable any transcoding in the MediaTomb config? I’m very nterested in transcoding MKVs to PS3.

Thanks! Fixed. I’m going to test on my Xbox 360 and post the results.

You mentioned an Xbox 360 in the beginning of your post, but then kept talking about a PS3. Type I assume. For anyone who has an Xbox 360 and wants to stream media from their Mac, take a look at Connect 360 (http://www.nullriver.com/products/connect360).
