i dont know if you can play videos off a flash drive. but i do know you have to have .wmv to have the xbox play it. but there is a trick around it. go to www.tversity.com and itll help you stream what ever kind of video thru the xbox.

did you get this to work, fill me in on how that goes. the first two things that come to mind of putting on my tv from my computer is porn and pictures of weed, but shit i'm kinda of past doing that. so what are you doing with yours?

You can play them on a flash drive. have to be windows media though.
