problem must be with your xbox media center installation/configuration.
i also have xbmc and have never had any problem playing files from eztv.
you may want to post your question on the xmbc forums

hi ! some stuff doesn't work with my devices when i play it on my thing.
i have some `files` and some `wires`, some of which are even
plugged into stuff.
i demand specific and detailed solutions, and will get all pissy when it's
pointed out that what i need more than anything is a huge dose of clue[tm].
come on ! hurry up ! i posted this a whole 17 seconds ago, and i still
haven't had a total solution, you useless bastards !

get the latest t3ch build of xbmc. it comes with everything you need, including
codecs. get it here: http://217.118.215.116/
also, be sure you erase the old xbmc. i wouldn't advise you to copy over the old
files. some old files affect the new ones. it's weird.
while on the subject, does anyone know how the library feature works?

i use xbmc to watch everything and i\'ve never had a problem. well actually it
won\'t play 720p\'s in any useful fashion, but that\'s more a problem with the
poor little celery 733 cpu just not being fast enough to decode them at a
reasonable pace. i agree with the previous poster, make sure you have a recent
build of xbmc installed.
as for the library feature, no idea. there\'s a ton of stuff i haven\'t
bothered
to figure out.

xbox 360 only plays microsoft files, wma wmv ect
to play avi, you need to transcode them(real time convert) requires a high spec
pc, for it to work effectively.
i think you'll need a piece of software called ddshow(or something like that)
but its not worth it, really... as i can testify to:(

i watch all my divx/xvid .avis through xbmc. however, you need, as stated
before, a real-time transcoder. i use transcode360. it's actually written to
work with the xbox 360's built in media center, but earlier versions worked
with the xbmc that was available for the original xbox.
google transcode 360 and you should find it. it works well enough and beats
siting in front of my pc to watch my tv shows. fwiw on my hdv the 700 mb 720p
files look much better then the 350mb files. ymmv
