HD-DVD on Xbox 360

Hi all,
I'm still testing my HD-DVD that brun with DVDSP 4.12,
it plays faultlessly on Toshiba HA2,
but the menu button overlays are all became invisible on Xbox 360,
but still working.
Anyone have idea of what went wrong with the button overlay ?
G

Didn't test other HD-DVD title yet,
cause we've just bought the Xbox for few days.
But as far as I know there's another company that
made a HD-DVD with Scenarist 4.1 beta has the
menu display fine.
But we still can see the video plays stutter on first
insert.I know there's a title called "Children's man"
getting the same issue.

  • XBox 360 HD-DVD with iMac

    I'm using my HD-DVD drive from my XBox 360 to watch movies on my iMac when booting into Windows. I use Cyberlink's PowerDVD (only player I know that supports Blu-Ray and HDDVD)
    It works fine, except for 2 things...
    1.) When I was running Windows Vista Ultimate, the movie Beowulf would cause the system to crash when I would play the movie (the menu would play perfectly, but once I chose to play the movie, I get a blue screen with driver problems with my video driver)
    2.) Since I couldn't run the movie with Windows Vista, I installed Windows XP Pro... the movie plays perfectly now (video resolution asks you to switch to 1920x1080, from 1920x1200. BUT!!! I cannot have my HD-DVD drive plugged into the USB port when starting the iMAC because the system gets stuck on the gray screen. If I remove the USB connection and turn on the iMac, it boots up fine.
    So does anyone know any fixes or workarounds between these 2 issues?
    P.S. HD movies look AWESOME on this 24" iMac.

    According to a report posted here, someone connected an XBox 360's HD-DVD drive to a Mac's USB port and it was recognized. If you're intending to connect it to a Mac with PCI slots and running OS 10.2.8 or newer, you can and should install a USB 2.0 card. A card having an NEC controller chip will be more Mac-compatible than others. If you plan to connect it to a Mac without USB 2.0 upgrade capability, using the onboard USB 1.1 bus will be limiting. I've got an external Pioneer DVD±RW USB drive, but I've never tried connecting it to my B&W G3's onboard USB 1.1 port to read DVD data disks (I connect it to the USB 2.0 PCI card). Try it and see what happens - you can't damage anything. In addition to the Mac's CPU speed and graphics capabilities, playing a DVD game would require a faster bus than USB 1.1. Hopefully, you can install a USB 2.0 PCI card and enjoy optimal performance.

  • Microsoft XBox 360 HD DVD drive and Panther/Tiger with USB 1?

    Hi, I've looked everywhere for this information, but is it possible to connect my Microsoft XBox 360 HD DVD drive into my blue and white (which runs Tiger, but wondering if this'll work with Panther for another computer). I don't currently have my blue and white G3 to test it with... So, can I connect it to my blue and white and read JUST data CDs and DVDs under USB1.1? Is it bearable? Could I run a DVD game, or is it too slow? And yes, I do have a DVD Dual layer burning drive in my blue and white, but this is just a question for a computer I want to buy, which would run Panther.. And I do know I can't boot off of this, since it is USB...
    thank you...

  • Importing xbox 360 video clips into imovie 6.0.3sk

    Hi, I have an xbox 360 that I would like to import some video clips off of onto my computer using imovie. I have a Powermac G4 with a dual 1.4 ghz cpu, 2 GB of RAM, and lots of HD disk space. I am using an ADS Pyro A/V link for capturing video. I have used this many times in imovie to capture video directly from a TV, VCR, DVD player, etc. For some reason when I hook up the cable from the xbox 360 to the Pyro (using either component connection or composite/RCA connection) and hit play in imovie to preview what's being converted, it can't process it. Sometimes it will show a bunch of pixelated squares, sometimes it won't show anything. Every once in a while it can process the sound, otherwise it doesn't show anything. After a few times, it says the pyro has been disconnected, although it obviously hasn't been. I've also tried directly importing without previewing it during the import, but that doesn't work either. I'm not sure if I need to set something a certain way? But I know you can import from the 360 because there are obviously many video clips floating around the internet taken straight from the xbox.
    Anybody know anything about this or have any ideas? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance

    Nevermind...I figured it out. There is a little button on the video cable that toggles HDTV on or off. Apparently it has to be off. So if anyone else has this problem, hopefully they can learn from my mistake.

  • Toast9 for use with Xbox 360??

    Can I use Toast 9 to make a HD DVD for use on my xbox 360?? How does it work? Do I export the movie when I am done editing it with iMovie '08 to Toast? When I export now it the most it will allow is 960x540...will this change once I have Toast9?
    Thanks

    Toast 9 has a BluRay plugin. It does not, to my knowledge, have an HD DVD plugin...
    afaik, 'dead horse' HDDVD is supported out-of-the-box..
    indeed, for BR media, you need the BR-plug-in..

  • How Can i get my ipod Video 60gb to play on my XBOX 360???

    How Can i get my ipod Video 60gb to play on my XBOX 360???

    she only needs to do that if he needs to change the format. For example if she recorded the clips via her  phone and it's not in a format iTunes will play.  For example if I have a .wmv iTunes won't touch it until I convert it. She could also be talking about video that she recorded on a DVD camcorder that burns the video to a DVD not a memory card. ITunes doesn't convert everything.
    She's transfered the clips to her ipad and the ipad won't play them. So she needs to get them to a m4v or mp4, and you use format converters for that. Not apps but something on the computer.

  • Toshiba 40E220U and Xbox 360

    SO Happy 4th everyone!! :-)
    I just purchased a Toshiba 40E220U 40" tv. super excited. be here tomorrow night.
    My question is, I wonder where the red, yellow and white cables go from my DVD player to the back of the TV
    and, I assume that I just hook up the hdmi cable from back of Xbox 360 to the back of the TV and that's it? Do I need to make any changes on settings? I guess all this will make sense when I get it set up! :-)
    thank you so much

    It might be late, but happy Fourth to you as well! By now you've likely already been playing with the TV for a few days, but I thought I'd explain in case you still needed help.
    For the Xbox 360, indeed, that's it! For your DVD player, there is a setting you'll have to switch. That TV uses a shared component and composite connection.
    You may already know this, but composite cables use red and white for audio and a yellow cable for video. Component connections use three cables for video rather than one. The TV has the five jacks for component connections. When connecting something (like your DVD player) with composite, you'll connect the audio cables like normal and connect the yellow video cable to the upper-right (green, I believe) video port.
    Then you'll need to go in the "Preferences" menu and change "AV Input" from "ColorStream HD" to "Video."

  • HDTV and XBOX 360

    I just ordered the package with the 32 inch Sony KDL-32M4000 LCD TV with the Sony DAVHDX275 Home Theater System. The TV's got 2 HDMI inputs, and 2 Component Video Inputs. The Home Theater system's got 1 HDMI output and 1 Component Video input with a digital audio input and a digital coaxial input. I'm trying to get the best performance out of my Xbox 360. If I run the hdmi from the HTS to my tv, whats the best way to run my Xbox to the HTS?

    Hey mwill2551,
    Because of the limited number of inputs on this particular home theater system, you’re probably only going to have one or two options available.  Before making any suggestions though, there are at least two questions that I’d like to ask:
    ·         Do you have any other devices that you’d like to connect, such as a DVD or Blu-ray player?
    ·         Do you plan on using an HD cable box or satellite receiver as well?
    Thanks,

  • Xbox 360 and toshiba 3tb external

    so i was at walmart in seekonk, ma last nite.. i wanted to store digital copies of my dvd's so i no longer have to deal with the actual dvd's everytime i my family and i wanted to watch movies...
    1 sales guy said i would need to get the external hard drive and wd tv live box.. connect the external to my wireless and the wd tv box to my tv.. i would be all set and the external would not work directly with the xbox 360.
    another sales guy said no, just connect it to the exbox and it will work.. the xbox will play the movies..
    now, i got hom how with just the exteranal, found out it had to be formated to fat32.. which the proper software "acronis disk director 11" will do the job - but costs $50.. neither one of the sales guys said anything about it being formated to fat32
    so here i am with my toshiba 3tb and still in the same predictament as before i even went there last nite.. just now i have an exteranl sitting on my kitchen table and less $120 in my wallet.
    so pi$$ed off.. do these people really know what the hell they are talking about? gonna go back up there at 10am when they open up and gonna talk to the store manager and give them a piece of my mind! and what's with the 10am crap? why don't they open at 9am like everyone else?

    "so i was at walmart in seekonk, ma last nite.. i wanted to store digital copies of my dvd's so i no longer have to deal with the actual dvd's everytime i my family and i wanted to watch movies..."
    Did you mean Best Buy? Otherwise, you have taken a wrong turn.
    That said, you don't need Acronis to reformat the drive to FAT32. Here's a free tool to do it:
    http://www.verbatim.com/index/support.php?lang_id=1&cat=9&action=downloads&pid=5411&aid=197
    Also, you don't need any other special devices, the external alone should work..
    http://www.ehow.com/how_4486548_use-regular-external-hard-drive.html
    One problem you may face is that FAT32 has a 4GB file limit, so you won't be able to store any files larger than that. No way to work around that, as far as I know. 

  • Xbox 360 to iMac, lets finish this once and for all!

    Hello Everyone!
    New to the forum here and I joint to get a finalised answer to a question I've heard people bickering about for ages! (hopefully the answer will come from someone who has done it/tryed it, not just someone who is going to create a theory of what would work!)
    So I want to use my iMac as a screen for my Xbox 360, because, well, it would be awesome!
    I have so far heard too many different things, for example, if I have a new 27" iMac (which i do) that its possibly just a single wire, mini DisplayPort to HDMI.
    Another thing i have read said, it can only be a single mini DisplayPort to HDMI as long as i have 8GB of Ram.
    Another has said I need to get a complete video converter to run through my mini DisplayPort that would cost around 150 pounds.
    I'm a student and cant really afford to be wrong other wise I would guinea pig this myself, so what im asking for here is someone to lay the smack down. Which is it, if any?!
    Does anyone even know if it has been successfully done yet!? And if it has, to how much success, does it have high lag? Because the guys at AppleCare Support were pretty sure it has been, but they were not allowed to recommend me anything because there is no official Apple fix for it. . . . Hence the reason why i was directed here. . .
    Thanks in advance!

    The answer is behind Door #3. It is a very expensive proposition.
    The two way mini-DisplayPort on the 27" iMac will only accept DisplayPort signaling. So you need a device that has DisplayPort video output, such as a new MacBook Pro which can be attached to the iMac with a simple m-DP to m-DP cable. If you have a device with a DisplayPort video port you can attach it to the iMac with a DisplayPort to m-DP cable. But if the device has any other video output, then you need a video converter to convert the signal to DisplayPort. And most of these converters can only supply 720p to the iMac. One very expensive one can do 1080p.
    You can get the converters from Kanex and Atlona.

  • Step by step complete setup for WRT54G ver.6 with Laptop and XBOX 360

    Hello.  I am sorry to post this, I am sure it is a juevenile and redundent question...but I have tried to look for the set up cd (I can find where to download it...though I can find the firmware upgrade or whatever).  My friend at work said it would do all the setup pretty much automatically for me.  
    I somewhat know computers, but you might go ahead and make your replies VERY lamen's terms or I might not be able to follow.  Anyways, what I need, is a step by step/screen by screen directions for a secure network.  I have made a partial attempt at setting it up and it technically works, but I would feel better if I did the steps a-z in order, so I know that it is done correctly.  I also am not totally confident in its security as it is now.  (Also, technically, I did not check the XBOX again after getting the new laptop, I am just assuming it is still working because it was before).
    My problem is I can't seem to find very good directions for setting up the router...I only find partials or confusing directions.
    So here are the things I am trying to connect:
    Liksys WRT54G ver. 6
    Gateway Laptop running Windows Vista
    XBOX 360 - WIRED
    (I had a PC and a laptop, but they both died at the same time and I have only been able to replace the laptop at this point...the PC will come later and not sure at this point if it will be Wired or not).
    I have a cable Modem between the Router and the wall...I didn't look at that for brand/etc...but I can get it ASAP if needed.
    Here are the settings that I have so far:
    Changed the Router Name
    Changed the SSID
    Have DHCP set to 3  (XBOX, PC, Laptop)
    Wireless SSID Broadcast: Disable
    Username and Password changed to my own info
    UPnP: Enable
    I may have changed other things without knowing it.  So like I said, a complete, step by step screen by screen set up would be totally appreciated.  I haven't done anything in the security tab, all that is totally foreign to me, so I am just not broadcasting for now until I can get some help setting things up with you guys.
    And if someone is familiar with the Laptop/XBOX 360 setup, and I need to change any of the settings on the XBOX itself, could you please include that in your directions?  I know that isn't technically what THIS forum is for, but it would sure be helpful to me if you happen to know both parts anyways.
    Thanks a lot (in advance)!

    So all you just need to do is, secure your Wireless Network. Follow the setps bellow and change the settings on your Router.
    Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...Leave Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
    For Wireless Settings, please do the following : -
    Click on the Wireless tab
    - Wireless Network mode should be mixed...
    - Provide a unique name in the Wireless Network Name (SSID) box in order to differentiate your network from your neighbours network...
    - Set the Wireless channel to 11-2.462GHz...Wireless SSID broadcast should be Enabled and then click on Save Settings...
    Please make a note of Wireless Network Name (SSID) as this is the Network Identifier...
    For Wireless Security : -
    Click on the Sub tab under Wireless > Wireless Security...
    Change the Wireless security mode to WPA, For Encryption, select TKIP...For Passphrase input your desired WPA Key. For example , MySecretKey , This will serve as your network key whenever you connect to your wireless network. Do NOT give this key to anyone and remember the key.
    NOTE : Passphrase should be more that 8 characters...
    Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect...
    Click on Advanced Wireless Settings
    Change the Beacon Interval to 75 >>Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304, Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 >>Click on "Save Settings"...
    Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect... 

  • Ipod on Xbox 360, some songs don't show up

    I recently bought an Xbox 360, I have been using my Ipod to listen to music but some songs don't show up in Xbox playlist, particularly the music I have bought and downloaded from Itunes music store, Is it some kind of protected format, what can I do to fix it, any help would be great, thanks

    This isn't foolproof but there are usually two things that contribute to songs not appearing under Artist on the iPod, both due to information either in or missing from the Get Info>Info tab against the song in iTunes. 1) the song has no album name associated with it or 2) the song is marked as part of a compilation.
    If tracks are missing an Album name (as mentioned above) in the Info tab, this information needs to be filled in. The no album one is a bit quirky as the songs will appear under certain circumstances but the simplest remedy is just add None or Miscellaneous in place of a title. See this link for more detail: I don't see some of my songs when browsing by artist on my iPod
    Also if the tracks are ticked in the Get Info>Info tab as part of a compilation, they will not appear under Artist on the iPod. Highlight a song in iTunes that you know is not appearing correctly on your iPod. Right click on it and choose Get Info and click the Info tab (alternatively choose Get Info from the File menu), if "Part of a Compilation" is marked untick it and afterwards update your iPod, you should find it now appears as normal. Compilations are stored in a separate folder in iTunes so the songs don't appear inside the normal Artist>Album folder which may be why this happens.

  • Intermittent network performance with WRE54G on Vista, and no Xbox 360 connectivity

    I bought a WRE54G this week to help with some network dead spots in my home after moving house.
    So far I've only had no real success - configuration seemed to take a while to work through (by the time I got the WPA PSK worked out) but now I at least have 2 blue lights on the device all the time.
    On my Windows Vista Business laptop (Toshiba Tecra M400 with latest drivers) in my office (a deadspot) I can connect to the network and WirelessMon reports consistent signal strength of 60% with occasional drops to 40%. However although the connection seems to remain constant, connectivity is not. I seem to suffer severe degredation of network connectivity - streamed video will not buffer correctly and times out; connections to my corporate Exchange server are not retained. My guess is that the laptop is doing something like switching between the router WiFi network and the WRE54G network, although i I switch off the WRE54G I lose all network connectivity to my latptop in my office.
    On my xbox 360 (using the Microsoft XBox 360 wireless network adaptor) I am also having problems. Once or twice I have successfully been given an IP address and then failed to get DNS servers. This evening I don't even get an IP address.
    I'm stuck - I've tried a LOT of things and not achieved any luck. Can anyone suggest anything, or do I have a faulty range expander.
    Details below....
    My ADSL router is an SMCWBRA79042 which does support WDS. All the devices in my house worked correctly with this router in my old house before introducing the WRE54G.
    I use WPA PSK, TKIP. However I've also tried to get things working without any security at all, and then adding in security functionality afterwards.
    I have already upgraded the firmware on my WRE54G to the latest version on the linksys web site.
    I have tried using different channels. Initially I was on 8 (it was a free channel in my neighbourhood) but also have tried 11 and am now on 6.
    I have tried changing the beacon to 50 and reducing the RTS and fragmentation thresholds to 2250.

    Hi
         Have u checked the compatibility of manufacturer's of these two devices i.e ADSL Router & Range Expander ( IMP * version No of WRE54G ) .
    Cheers. !

  • Airport extreme connecting with xbox 360 wireless adapter problems...help!!

    Has anyone linked their xbox 360 wireless adapter to an Airport Extreme? I need help! Neither Apple nor Microsoft knew how to link the two devices. If anyone has successfully been able to make this work, your help will be much appreciated. Thanks guys

    Yes - Mine works no problem. I have found that I have to unplug the Xbox360 wireless adaptor and plug it back in occasionally (if the green light is on everything is fine). Are you using the correct WPA Key?
