.avi to .wmv Converter?

Alright. So my 360 can now play .wmv files. This presents only one problem: All my files be .avi, yo.
I'm looking for a quick and dirty converter. Also, does anyone know if I can just slap the files onto a DVD and pop them into the 360 and they'll work? Or do I have to stream them from my PC?

Is there an "on the fly" converter for WMP11 that will convert .avi to .wmv when you select it from the 360?
Like, a program that would convert .avi to .wmv, store it in temporary location, stream the .wmv to 360, then when 360 stops viewing, would delete the .wmv?

Click Transcode 360.
It's a neat little project, that currently supports MCE -> 360 transfer, but not yet the WMP11 transfer. It will be updated in a while I guess.
EDIT: and .avi is just a container, the real meat of the file is the codec. Most videos downloaded from the net are Xvid, so Transcode 360 will do for now.
