Does anyone know what format videos have to be in to be able to play on both the Droid X and through DLNA on the Xbox 360? I've already tried .mp4 and .avi.

Thanks in advance!

I have been trying to get this linked up, and everything is so vague. Any light on this would be great!

I set up the DLNA last night and to me it is useless for videos (on the Droid X) because the format is 3GP and I am not sure what plays that. I could not push any videos I took to my Popcorn or WDTV. It recognized them no problem. I do not have an XBox and I did not try with my PS3, but I don't believe you can push to PS3 because it is not a digital media renderer.
