    Plug your USB key directly into the front of the XBox, then stat Xbox and open up 'Video Library'.

    The USB key needs to be formatted for FAT32 first I think its called. Think you can play .avi and .mpg files then.....

    he sees the files, he needs to download codecs.

    OP: there is a sticky in Xbox category, How to connect..blahblah. You will find all answers over there. BTW you'll need crossover cable.
