First of all, go and download WMP 11 here:

After that, you want to go over here and get Tversity:

Get the very latest build, and install it. If your 360 is having trouble seeing it, try and open the 41952 port in your firewall, as well as the Tversity exe’s, which is quite easy in the windows firewall, and I recommend exploring them. If you have any issues with this, go to the following:

The very latest build (0.9.9.1) already has the 360 enhancing patches needed for the transcoding, so no need to go and get them again. In fact, if you do, it might get really messed up. Repeat: YOU DONT NEED ANY PATCHES FOR THE VERY LATEST BUILD. (Released on the 26/11/06 By the way)

Nearly there now squires, get the FFDShow codec you want here (Preferably the top one in the download list, as that works for everyone):

To install this, stop Tversity and just run the exe inside the zip file, and go through it, and don’t untick anything you shouldn’t.

Finally, start Tversity, and add DivX files or folders containing them, and feel the full force of the transcode on your PC (it likes CPU’s and it cannot lie), and on your eyes and ears as this is absolutely awesome on your 360.

NOTICE

If you want your 360 to display your DivX in 720p (or higher) you must:

a) Be insane as you need at least a dual core CPU

and

b) Be ready for some experiments.

Go to \Program Files\TVersity\Media Server, and right click on the profile xml file, and find the Xbox 360 profile. Here, change the minvideoinfo bit to the res you want. 720p is believed to be 1280 x 720, but I have no idea about bitrate.
