Turns out that the popularity of the XboxMediaCenter hack has been so great the developers have migrated it to the PC—usually the other way around. More details about the port can be found at Xbox-Scene.com or you can download the XBMC_PC_12-04-2004_2.rar file here.
Details about the XboxMediaCenter Project:
The XboxMediaCenter is a free open source (GPL) multimedia player for the Xbox™ from Microsoft. (XboxMediaCenter is also known as “Xbox Media Center” or simply “XBMC”). Currently the XboxMediaCenter can be used to play and view supported video/audio/picture formats such as MPEG-1/2, DivX, XVID, MP3, JPG and more direct from a CD/DVD in the Xbox™ DVD-ROM or of the Xbox™ hard disk drive, it can also play files from a PC over a LAN / network via XStream Server software or from a Windows (SMB) share. It has playlists and slideshow. These features enable the Xbox™ running XboxMediaCenter to fully function as a multi-media jukebox.
Note! XBMC is a hobby project that is only developed by volunteers in their spare-time for free.
(Remember XboxMediaCenter does require a Xbox mod-chip installed in the Xbox™ to work).
