Convert Video to XboX360 – Do It Yourself (Part-1)

There are folks that always question about how to make movies and music videos playable on XboX360 from devise video formats. For most of us, it seems like an impossible mission. We rushed out of getting a brand new video game console representing that it can playback almost all video files on the world, but ended up with depression.

From official site for XboX, we learned information as to the XboX360 that it supports such a bit of video formats as WMV, HD-WMV, H.264, and MPEG-4. It’s been said that if you got an Xbox 360 Component HD AV Cable connected to your high-definition or HD-ready television or monitor, you can view DVD movies in 480p and HD-DVD movies in 480p, 720p, or 1080i, and view both DVD and HD-DVD movies in any supported resolution up to 1080p with an Xbox 360 VGA HD AV Cable. So we are informed with the resolutions support.

Back to the purpose of this article, I would give you a technical way to convert video files unsupported by XboX360 into an XboX360 supported HD-WMV file in 1080p, and you can totally Do-It-Yourself with ease. Due to my personal buy, I will show you the whole process with a useful software tool – Xilisoft Video Converter (also, there is Xbox 360 converter now).

When the installation’s been done (you can download the software from http://www.mov-converter.com/xilisoft-video-converter-ultimate/x-video-converter-ultimate-91467.exe first), just get into the folder where you installed it (the path is usually specified at “C:\Program Files\Xilisoft\Video Converter 3” in default). Keep going into the “profile” folder, you will find a lot of files extension in .pf. That is what we are looking for. Open anyone of them using EditPlus (a tool of text editor, you can get one from http://www.editplus.com) or with Notepad, the extra editor of Microsoft, all secrets and mysteries for video and audio conversion exposed in our eyes!

Then, the next action is a snap I bet everyone can do it easily. Just right-click your mouse, select the sub-option “Text document” of “New” to make up a new file in the “Profile” folder. Rename it as the extension in .pf, and open it up. The last thing you’re gonna do is just to paste all offerings bold below into the new .pf file, and save the changes.

Surprisingly, there would be a new output profile named Xbox_mpeg2_1080pTV come out in the Video Converter with set of parameters available like video size and bit rate, and audio sample rate. Is that amazing? Be proud of yourself? Yup, you can Do-It-yourself!
