Nullriver’s always been quick to support upgrades to Connect360 whenever Microsoft releases an update to the Xbox 360 Dashboard, and this time is no exception. On Tuesday, they released the Fall 2007 Dashboard Update, yesterday I touched on my initial impressions of said update, and sometime thereafter Nullriver released Connect360 3.2.

Versions 3.2 is a small¹ update in that it simply adds support for streaming XVID/DIVX video (in AVI containers) to an Xbox 360 running the Fall 2007 Dashboard Update. I upgraded this morning and was immediately able to stream the GUIdebook Gallery’s archive of the Welcome to Newton video (which is XViD in an AVI container) to my Xbox 260.

I do now have a layout issue in the Connect360 preference pane, but it’s merely and annoyance and it’ll probably be fixed easily enough.

On a related note, I highly suggest those that want to play various media formats such as XViD/DIVX in QuickTime on Mac OS X go and grab a copy of Perian. ‘Nuff said!

Update: The “layout issue” I described above turns out to be a difference in the size of the System Preferences window in Leopard from Tiger. Nullriver is currently suggesting upgrading to Leopard to fix this annoyance.

¹ I say “small” only because with the Spring 2007 Dashboard Update, Microsoft managed to cause Connect360 to fail and so Nullriver had much more work cut out for them.
