We’ve used Media Center to extend to the Xbox. Mainly music with picture slideshows. In Windows 8 to the Xbox extender it seems to be broken. Plays one song in a playlist and stops.
Haven’t put it to full usage, my main use was to connect my USB Tuner to record TV and it worked fine. Thanls for the heads up on Xbox.
