Has anyone tried this yet?

I'm curious to see how this works out.

"For example, if you have an Xbox 360 or other digital media receiver (DMR), you can use Windows Media Player to stream music and pictures from your computer to that device."

I had nothing but problems when I went to WMP11 Beta on my machine (XP SP2). WMP11 takes over for Windows Media Connect, but it never worked properly. I found where all of the settings were, and they were set correctly (as far as I could discern from help online), but my Xbox360 would not find my computer anymore. I tried everything you can think of, but the only thing that helped re-establish the link so that I could stream pics and music from my PC to my 360 was to remove WMP11 Beta and rollback to WMP10, and re-install Windows Media Connect. Now it works fine again...
