How do I... My friend an I are going to stream our desktop's to our Xbox 360's and we were wondering if we could do some things on the Xbox in Media Center mode...
-Access iTunes Libary
-Play YouTube
-Access Firefox
-Access Microsoft Office (mostly Word and Power Point)
Can you do any of that in Media Center on the Xbox 360? | My System Specs |

You should be able to access any songs on your computer, but not neccesarily through iTunes.
YouTube videos might be able to be streamed, but i doubt you can view the site itself.
Firefox... probably not.
Office.. Probably not. If you're looking to use Youtube, Firefox and Office you're much better off just connecting your computer straight to the tv. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Apple Macbook Pro (April 2009) OS W7 Ult. x64 | OS X CPU Intel Mobile Core 2 Duo 2.93Ghz [T9800 Penryn] Motherboard NVIDIA nForce 730i Rev.

You're best bet is to look into the 3rd party media server such as PlayOn that has built in Xbox support. TubeCore will let you stream Youtube to it. | My System Specs | | OS Windows 7 CPU i5-750 Motherboard Asus Memory 4GB DDR3 1600 Graphics Card GT220 All times are GMT -5. The time now is 07:00 AM. | |
