Windows 7 to natively support DivX and transcoding? {Engadget HD}
Nov 7th 2008 1:54PM Transcoding is just a mask to the real problem. People have been transcoding VMC for almost a year now, and although it is nice it still does not give us the features that we want....i.e. chapter skip, ff, rew, etc.
I know there are legal issues involved in the whole process of allowing native streaming, but it does not make sense to me how you can transcode and stream a movie any more legally than just doing native streaming.

Workaround enables DVD Library streaming on Media Center Extenders {Engadget HD}
May 1st 2008 9:28AM Actually this works without needing service pack 1. I was able to get it working without having it installed, however it all you are really doing is creating an identical mpeg file of the VOB file.
I hope that someone is working on a hack to allow the .vob files to play on the extenders.

May 1st 2008 9:16AM I actually tried this without SP1 and it works. However it does not really play the .vob files - all you are doing is creating an MPEG file of the vob. I hope that someone is working on a hack to allow the .vob files to play on the extenders.
