How to Make Vuze Work With Xbox 360
With Vuze device playback, you can use your Xbox 360 to watch movies and listen to music on your television without taking up space on your Xbox 360's hard drive. Once you've purchased music or movies and have those files stored on your computer's hard drive, you can simply drag and drop the files from the Vuze BitTorrent client to your Xbox 360. Vuze is then programmed to automatically convert media files into compatible files for your Xbox 360.

Click "HD" or "SD" in the Vuze program. SD stands for standard definition and HD for high definition. HD files are bigger than SD files. Depending on the size of the file or number of files, it may take several hours for Vuze to convert the files to a compatible format for your Xbox 360. Converting the file is called transcoding in Vuze.

Tips & Warnings
Your Xbox 360 must be on your home network for Vuze to recognize it in the Vuze application. To set up your Xbox 360 on your network if you haven't already done so, connect your Xbox 360 to your router with an Ethernet cable if you don't have a wireless router. Go to "My Xbox," and select "System Settings." From there, select "Network Settings." If you are on a wireless network, find your wireless network from the list of available networks and select it. Enter the network password, if necessary, and select "Yes." If your Xbox 360 is connected with the Ethernet cable, select "Test Xbox Live Connection," and then select "Yes."
Do not use Vuze to download copyright protected movies or music.
