connect to xbox using Windows Media Center

Is there any software available for ubuntu that can emulate Windows Media Center for connecting a computer to an xbox? I tried following the xbox wizard, but it says that I need Windows.

I just want to be able to choose to show pictures, play music or video on my tv through my xbox instead of my computer.

I can currently do something similar using my Samsung phone and wireless TV using AllShare. I just choose which video I want to play and where and it works like magic.

The TV my xbox is connected to though doesn't have wireless so I was hoping to use the xbox for similar functionality.

Thanks

You can use rygel to run a upnp/dlna server on your computer. I use it, and it works well for streaming music and movies to both my Xbox and PS3.
