    You would have to convert the dvd files into a video type file like an .avi or divx to be played with the media player on your modded xbox. If your using the program on your xbox that rips games directly to the hdd to rip movies to the hdd it won't play because it's still in dvd file format.

    You could also go into XBMC and play them from there.
