evox is the dashboard replacement of xbox original dashboard. slayer is the auto installer.


xbox + xbmc + component is great for enjoying scaled-up xvid/divx/dvd video on one's big ass screen. and it done a remarkable job at it too. but don't have enough juice to run today's HD compressed video.

a dual core cpu + hdmi/component graphic card + ram + hdd might cost RM700-RM1k but in the long run would be a better investment to enjoy HD video.

You are right xxboxx, but look at the state of it, having to stream or view HD contents will be taxing, well at least for me, and majority of people, since having to download HD contents would take hours or even days, due to its huge download size.

Well at least for me now, dvdrips are reasonable, although i wont get to see the details as compared to HD videos.

well, i have problems with running HQ mkvs on my xbox, sometimes i get the audio out of sync and most of the time i got the vid choppy, somtimes i can play it well in dvdplayer instead of the default Mplayer, oh, and with dvdplayer,
u can fast forward videos, Mplayer cant. I usually dload animes from streaming sites, so they usually comes in Flv.
press the white button on the videos and choose play using. i prefer Dvdplayer (it doesnt have much diff but it does
play some vids well than mplayer. rclxms.gif

You can fast forward videos in Mplayer, but you have to download the codec packs, VLC player if iam not mistaken. So is your xbox still running, or have been collecting dust?

The old xbox has better media center playback than 360. I buy it since I dont have DVD/vcd/mp4 player and because of halo games smile.gif .

For Xbox360 I'll wait until every problem solved tongue.gif

btw
xbox - 60GB - XBMC - Executer2

Yes, you got that right enCORe. Xbox is the best for standard definition media playback. The limited media playback on the xbox 360 is due to the piracy issues on High Def media.

Yeah there is a tutorial on how to use PC DVD rom with the xbox externally or internally. It has better compatibility against dvd discs thought, so you are good to go because those philips drivers pre installed onto those xboxes are sometimes incompatible with the latest media discs formats.

XBOX Scene PC DVD Drive on Xbox

PC DVD rom on Xbox the good and the bad

Anyways, i installed Mediastream skin on the XBMC. Look at how beautiful the interface is.

@enCOre, you just have to download the mediastream skin and ftp it to your Xbox :
F or E or C / Apps/xbmc/skins .

And you have to have the latest revision of XBMC march 3 2009.

@Bopiang,

XBMC Team Razorfish's Mediastream

XBMC Aeon Project skin

There are 2 ultimate skin. Aeon and Mediastream. But seriously, i would recommend the MediaStream skin because it is user friendly, and definitely the ultimate skin smile.gif

I would love to help. But i reckon you are away from me. But i can tell you that if you are computer and internet literate, you can pull it off easily. First things first, i need to know whether your Xbox is out of the box original, is it soft-modded or does it has chipped on it?

To know if it is original, it can't play pirated/backed up games on a normal DVD5 or DVD9.

To know if its soft-modded, it can run pirated/backed up games on normal DVD5 or DVD9.

To know if its chipped, there is an icon that will most probably say ' xecuter 2 ' during boot up i think this chip is the most common in Malaysia.

If it shows evox symbol, then you are either softmodded or hard modded. Which means you are safe to load into XBMC. Now all you have to do is download " SLAYERz 2.7 xbmc autoinstaller " , burn it into a disc, and load it into your xbox. After that, the autoinstaller will install xbmc for you easily without any fuss. Just go through the on screen instructions smile.gif Then you might have to learn how to FTP contents to your xbox but thats the next part.

I installed a 160gigabyte, and i have 100 on F: , 25 on G;, 10 on E:

Probably u need to reformat the drive first, then install it back again.
