The only drawback is the newest movie file format (MKV, not sure if its new actually) but it is Blue Ray burned contect in HD 1080 and I can't get it to play on the xbox through wirelessly connecting to my computer and they don't transfer to external harddrives.
MP4's are a great HD format readable on the Xbox (AVI's are the normal DVD rip)

Just a note. You don't need a wireless connection to stream from you computer. I use a wired network because I want the speeds to be top notch without any hitches.
