    There's an "Optional Media Update" that you can download. Instructions on the Xbox site.

    Yes it is, but my iPod was configured to act like a HDD and I used WinAmp to synchronise my .mp3s on to the device. From there I was able to connect the iPod to the Xbox and play music from it.

    Hope this helps!

    what type of ipod do you have ?
    I have a 3rd generation ipod nano and all i have to do is plus it in, but i also had a 1st gen ipod touch and i couldnt get that to work.
    So maybe it could all depend on your type of ipod ?

    I think that mony of the newer iPods don't work. I know my iPhone doesn't. It's something to do with how the music is stored on the device and it was changed from earlier versions (installing the optional media update doesn't help either).

    The iPod Touch won't work as it's flash memory and not a HDD like previous iPods.
