Question about my 360

I'm trying to stream season 3 of lost that i downloaded off the world wide web. Well, uttorent actually. Anywho, when i go to my video section on my 360, the folder "lost season 3" is there, but when i open it it says no videos are found. Now, i can open windows media player on my pc and watch them, and they are in the library which is what i'm using to link the xbox. So, i'm guessing the format might not be supported on the 360. I don't do alot of downloading of video and am not familiar with formats. I think it's an .avi file and it's xvid if that means anything. So, can i either convert it to a file that my 360 will read, or is it easier to possibly burn those to a dvd that my sony dvd player will read?

 

It has to be Windows Media Video (WMV), and there's some kinda special sum'tin' you gotta do. Anywho,

 

ok. I'm intrigued, and i'm wanting to go the free route.

 

What special do you have to do? Everything I've used with wmv works.

 

i'm really trying to find a good converter for avi to wmv at this point. I also read something about converting to H6q4570-34 or something like that. It's been a long drawn out process trying to find something that's relatively easy so far.
