Ok, first you will need a program called TVersity. Obviously you need to have your PC and your Xbox 360 connected to your network. You can get it here, it's freeware. http://www.tversity.com/
Next you will need to configure the settings of TVersity.
Click on Settings when opening TVersity
Choose "General"
Change Media Playback Device to "Auto Detect"
Leave everything else on that the way it is
Choose "Transcoder"
Click on Transcode only when needed
Then choose the proper Resolution of your Monitor/TV for Video/Images
Click DirectShow for Windows Encoding and choose Windows Media Video 9
For optimization choose quality
Choose your connection type (I chose Wireless G 54Mbps, because my PC is wired but my Xbox is wireless)
Compression: Choose Average
Choose Decode Media as fast as possible
Save settings at bottom of screen
Next click on Library at top of window
Click on "Add Item"
Click advanced, and make sure all three boxes are checked and Transcode when needed is checked.
Browse for your media folder(s) and submit
Wait until the spinney circle is done and look at icon in task bar and if its blue then you're streaming, if not go back to Settings > General and Start Sharing
Go to your Xbox 360 and hit the Video, Music or Image/Photo tab and choose TVersity on PC option and find what you want in the folder "All"
