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...

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.

Can I programmatically control an xbox 360 console from a PC using a USB cable?

I have an application that may require LabVIEW, some software normally associated with LabVIEW or both...
I would like to be able to programmatically control an Xbox 360, via a PC, and through the use of a USB cable connecting both. I have setup a separate Xbox 360 console as a "dedicated server" for my gaming clan. I would like to be able to have the PC issue scripted commands according to a schedule, that will cause the console to power up, start the specific game (disk in the machine already), and then proceed through a number of Xbox 360 controller button actuations to cause the game to essentially be ready to play.
If possible, I would like to find software that I could install on my PC (currently run with a Windows XP SP2 OS, but I have access to many versions of Windows and also Linux and soon, Solaris Unix).
I have tried using various Infrared devices that connect to and are controlled by my PC, but none so far have allowed the infrared signals to work once the game is launched (apparently, only controller signals generated through a USB cable or through RF from a wireless Xbox 360 remote work once the game is launched - and that probably because the IR signals are meant to control the console as a media device).
I would appreciate any direction that you 'all could offer. Thanks in advance!

Thanks for your replies everyone, and thanks to NI for this great forum!
The last solution appears to be pretty close to what I'd like to do. If I understand you Robert, I would attach a DAQ to my PC via USB and would control that device via software, then the DAQ connects to a digital output controlled relay (looks multiple wires, and screw-on connections) and then there would be separate wires connecting 'channels' (my term) from the relay to individual button wires inside of the gaming controller? The signals coming from the controller following this would therefore appear as normal.
If this is correct, could you suggest any specific devices for this? I see that NI makes several USB DAQ's includng the USB-6501, 6008, and 6009. I also have seen many digital output controlled relays available from different vendors. I could use some assistance with the finer points for choosing the correct ones to purchase.
In case it makes any difference although the controller has analog functions my requirements are for only the digital buttons only as I would simply be proceeding through the Console's menu (left, right, up, down, enter/select, etc.), launching the game, and then within the game continuing to choose among the game's menu items, ultimately according to a script. So, I don't see any need to be able to actuate either of the 'sticks' which are analog in nature.
Thanks!

Star Wars Bundle?

I preordered Star Wars episodes 4, 5, & 6. I wanted to do the bundle of all 6 movies that other people were providing but since I tunes would not let you preorder the bundle I preordered just the last 3 movies. Now iTunes is offering the star wars bundle with all 6 movies for $89.99. I thought since i had purchased three of the movies it would lower the cost to $29.99 since I have already payed $60. but it still shows $89.99 I clicked on the buy button and it warns me that I already own some of the content do I want to go ahead and purchase the bundle. I am scared it will charge me $89.99 on top of the $60 I already spent am I out of luck because I preordered 3 of the movies or am I missing something. Thanks

Another poster said that they were charged the full bundle price. If you want the bundle then try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will refund or credit you for the individual film purchases so that you can buy the bundle instead : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

WRT160N V3 Two Xbox 360 consoles Xbox live NAT Resolution

Has anyone found a solution to the NAT problems involving two xbox 360s connecting to xbox live using the WRT160N V3 at the same time? I always get one that reads Open NAT (usually the 1st one to sign in) and one that gets the dreaded Strict NAT type. I have read of various solutions yet many of them do not resolve the issue. Any help is greatly appreciated!!

You can try the below mentioned settings and check.
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...
On the set-up tab change the MTU Size to 1365 and click Save Settings...
Click on "Administration" tab and disable the option UPnP and click Save Settings...
Click on "Applications and Gaming" tab and then click on "Port Range Forwarding" subtab...
1) On the first line in Application box type in ABC, in the start box type in 53 and End box type in 3074, leave the protocol as both and under ip address type in 192.168.1.20 and check the enable box, click Save Settings once done...
2) Once you return to the set up page click on the Security tab and uncheck Block Anonymous Internet Requests and click on Save Settings...
3)Click on the Status tab and take note of DNS1 and DNS2 Addresses...
4) Goto the XBox Network Settings and IP Address Settings and select manual IP Settings and assign the following on your Xbox
IP Address :- 192.168.1.20, Subnet Mask :- 255.255.255.0, Default Gateway :- 192.168.1.1...
5) Also assign the DNS Addresses on the Xbox
Use DNS1 and DNS2 Addresses you took note off of the router status tab as Primary DNS & Secondary DNS for the xbox...
6) Turn off your modem, router, and Xbox...Wait for a minute...
7) Plug the modem power first, wait for another minute and plug the router power cable, wait another minute and turn on the Xbox and test it...it will connect...
IP Address: 192.168.X.[last part of ip in your device] e.g. if static ip given to the device was 192.168.X.10 get the last part and put that to the empty box.

Star Wars Bundle not released in a timely manner?

I like many others purchased individual Star Wars movies on pre-order! Then suddenly Friday morning there it was $89.95! I sent Apple an email Friday asking for the ability to get credit for individual movies against "Bundle". Anybody tried to get this done also? Anybody heard anything?

Hi, Tina
Thanks for your response. The problem was due to me not fully understanding the implications of the router configuration. Under the VPN and Remote Access settings for Remote Access Control you choose which protocols are going to be used for the LAN to LAN
connection. I had blindly followed the guide which used PPTP.
What I had not realised was that the guide issued by Draytek assumed there were no other incoming VPN connections.
Because the router already used NAT to redirect port traffic, selecting PPTP for LAN to LAN disabled the NAT settings for PPTP and staff using 'on-demand' VPN connections were unable to connect because the PPTP was being treated as a LAN to LAN connection. Authentication
for the connection was failing because the router did not recognise the users' Windows domain account. Also, the there is a small explanatory note stating this will happen on that setting but I had not read it properly.
Once I changed the LAN to LAN protocol to L2TP and unchecked the PPTP option staff were again able to use 'on-demand' VPN connections.

WRT54G & XBOX 360 Wireless Networking Adapter-Router doesn't see my SSID

I purchased a XBOX 360 networking adapter yesterday. I hooked it up and serched for networks and it doesn't see my SSID through the linksys router. Before I purchased the 360 adapter, I could hard hook it to the router and it worked fine. I called 360 and they suggested that I open my MAC on the Linksys Router so that it would recognize it, but I do not know how to do that. I know how to get into 192.168.1.1, but don't want to do anything crazy. Please advise. I'm not a novice, but not an advanced router owner. Thanks,
WRT54G v.8

SSID Broadcast should be Enabled on your router...
Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1...Leave username blank & in password use admin in lower case...
For Wireless Settings, please do the following : -
Click on the Wireless tab-
Here select manual configuration...Wireless Network mode should be mixed...SSID Broadcast should be Enabled...Check what is your SSID(change the SSID if it is Linksys)...Click Save Settings if you have changed anything...
Click on the subtab Wireless Security, if the Security Mode is WPA/WPA2 change it to WEP, if it is WEP take not of Key1(this is your wireless security)...
X-Box Setting :
1. Connect the appropriate wireless network adapter to the console. On the Xbox, a Wi-Fi adapter that connects to the Ethernet port (sometimes also called a wireless network bridge) must be used. Alternatively, the Xbox 360 is also designed to work with certain Wi-Fi game adapters that connect to a USB port.
2. Turn on the console and navigate to the wireless settings screen. On the Xbox, the menu path is "Settings -> Network Settings -> Advanced -> Wireless -> Settings" On the Xbox 360, the menu path is "System -> Network Settings -> Edit Settings."
3. Set the SSID (network name) on the Xbox to match that of the wireless router. If your wireless router has enabled SSID broadcast, the SSID name should appear pre-selected on the Xbox display. Otherwise, select the "Specify Unlisted Network" option and enter the SSID there.
4. Specify "Infrastructure" as the Network Mode. (Infrastructure is the mode used by wireless routers.)
5. Set the Security Type to match that of the wireless router. If your router uses WPA encryption and the type of adapter connected to the Xbox does not support WPA, you will need to change your router settings to use WEP encryption instead.
Note that the standard Microsoft Xbox 360 Wireless Network Adapter supports WPA while the standard Microsoft Xbox Wireless Adapter (MN-740) only supports WEP.
6. Save your settings and verify the network is functional.
On the Xbox, the Wireless Status screen displays whether a connection has successfully been made with the wireless router, and the Connect Status screen displays whether a connection has successfully been made through the Internet to Xbox Live.
On the Xbox 360, use the "Test Xbox Live Connection" option instead.

Can anyone tell me how to port forward and setup an XBOX 360 using my Time Capsule??

Xbox 360
When playing the game online, the minimum speed of your network should be 128kbps. The ideal network speed for playing the game online is 768kbps. If you are having a problems with lag check the following:
Network Troubleshooting:
Disable any firewall or security features on your router.
Set port forwarding on your router to the IP address of your Xbox 360. This game uses port 3074 (UDP/TCP). Additionally Xbox LIVE requires ports 80, 53 TCP and 88, 53 UDP.
Place your Xbox 360 into the DMZ of your router.
Disconnect your router and try the game. If it works regularly at this point something about your router may not be completely compatible with the specific needs of this game. Check with your router manufacturer and Microsoft's Xbox Live Connection Issues page for additional steps that may need to be done to resolve the issue you are having. You can also verify that you have an Xbox Live compatible router.
If you are having issues connecting while multiple Xbox 360 consoles are connected on the same network, try forwarding port 3074 (UDP/TCP) for one Xbox 360 and setting the other as DMZ. There is a chance that this may not resolve you issue, if it doesn’t then you may want to consider getting an additional public IP address by contacting your Internet Service Provider and assigning it to one of these two consoles.
NOTE: If setting port forwarding or DMZ helps your connection issue, you may want to assign your Xbox 360 a static IP address within your home network. This can help to ensure that the configurations you made do not need to be done again. You can visit PortForward's Static IP Guide for a detailed guide on how to do this.
NOTE: Many broadband internet modems are coming with routing capabilities built in. Please contact your internet service provider to determine if your internet modem has an integrated router. If it does, they should be able to assist you with the steps above for setting up your router.
Once you have verified that your network setup is not the cause of the issue, try the following:
Try connecting to a different server. Some servers may have other players connected to them that you do not have an optimal connection with. In most games this is accomplished by backing out to the main menu and then selecting multiplayer again. From there you can try connecting to another online game.
Run the Xbox Network Self Test to see how strong your NAT is currently set to. Once the test is completed you will be notified if there is an issue with your connection. If you select "More Info" you will be given information about your NAT type and some steps to resolve any issues with your connection.
Moderate and Strict NAT types may have issues connecting to online matches. You may get the error "Notice - The game session is no longer available." If you do then enabling UPnP, forwarding port 3074, or placing your Xbox in your router's DMZ may resolve this issue. Please consult your router documentation for instructions on how to do this.

Whoa....this just went way over my head.... I already have 6.1 installed for my Airport Utility.
Read again what I wrote.. 6.1 is the problem.. or part of it.
You need to install the earlier 5.6 version which I have given you explicit instructions to do.
I have done something now and can not connect the XBOX at all now....unless you can provide me step by step directions I may have to call Apple Support.
This will happen over and over.. just press reset and start again.. you need to learn how to do the setup and using 5.6 utility will help you.. as will using ethernet from the computer to the TC.. trying to fix things over wireless is like sitting on a tree branch you are sawing off. As soon as you update you will fall to the ground.
I am not that sure that Apple Support will have any idea.
Do a google search .. you will find most people struggle with this.. Microsoft made the xbox to use upnp with vista specs.. if you use a router without upnp, ie any apple router.. you will have issues.
Have a go at bypassing the problem.. I have no idea if this will work.. I do not use a TC as the main router because much of my network including xbox and ps3 is just a pain.. I use a modem router with upnp. And bridge the TC.. that is the setup I would recommend.
Try this.. once you have installed 5.6 utility.
Get the IP of the XBox and click enable default host.. and put the IP address in there.. this is called DMZ.. all unassigned packets are forwarded to this ip address.. it is like a port forwarding for all ports.
See if it helps.. If it does you will need to lock the xbox address so it doesn't change.. we can get to that.
Tell me what kind of broadband you have and what modem router first.. none of this will work if you have double NAT.

Help Needed 2 x Xbox 360 & WRT320N

Hi,
Iam currently looking to purchases a new router for the Home, we have several computers and 2 X box 360 consoles, Currently using our current Cable modem / Router (Netgear) we are unable to get an open NAT setting for both consoles when we play on line.
My Question is, will the WAG320N allow us to connect multipliable Xbox 360 units and receive Open NAT settings on both X box 360's
I have access to use a SURboard SB5101 cable modem that i want to connect to a router that will fix our issue, Currently we are using a Netgear Modem/Router Combo (Telstra Bigpond Customer)

Can anyone tell me it also because i have the same problem as luckydogslevin.
I have 2 xbox consols and they are all connected to 1 router (WRT320N) I have tried everything from calling to Xbox maybe they have brains and they can tell me what i need to do. And i did also what the link said:http://en.kioskea.net/faq/4983-how-to-connect-two-xbox-360-consoles-on-a-network
And throught this i have seen that the most of the tips are like crap sorry for my language but its true they said from try Port Forwarding and at the same time DMZ oke one thing i know is that they are not working to gather that well and even some said just turn UPnP off and put anomynouse internet filter off again i know it is not going to work but still i try.
NOTHING is working .
I need someone that finally found the cure for this cancer because is really driving my nuts.
Please let someone have the major discovery and tell me what thing i need to do maybe with nice pictures or a good explanation what i need to do step by step.
BTW i have also tried DD-WRT and i dont like it because i have limited bandwidth i have normally 120 Mb/s and i like to keep it that way because with DD-WRT i just get 80 or less and that is not where i'm paying for you know.
Again please come with how you need to do it .

Accessorie NYKO Charge Base Xbox 360 question about the batteries

I am sorry, I couldn't find the right forum for game accessories. I recently bought nyko Charge Base for the xbox 360 from best buy, when I got home I open the package then charged the nyko battery using nyko Charge Base, because the battery showed 3 bars that is why I was charging it. While the charger showed a green light, I went ahead and clicked the guide button that showed 4 bars.. I was playing one of my games, I notice that their was only 3 bars left while it was fully charged this is the same day I charged the battery then used it while on the guide button showed a circle ring from acting like their was 2 bars left. From sunday morning the 13th I had 3 bars left, the afternoon I only had 2 bars left from using the microsoft xbox 360 controller. For some reason the batterie act as it was dead shut off 3 times like a hour or so, while the green circle from the guide button was active.. Sunday night using the same controller same batterie showed 1 bar left . On monday morning the 14th using the same controller same batterie, I just left the controller on just to see what would happen, while the controller turn off I did press the guide button again just to see if the controller would turn on um it was out of juice. So I was charging the battery again, clicked the guide button, saw 3 bars on the screen, I clicked the guide button once again then showed 4 bars then 2 after.. I understand this wasn't a question, but it hasn't been 24 hours.. Mostly everyday I have seen the green circle while it showed up 3 bars. Did anyone had a similar problem like I had? While the battery was fully charge from monday at 3pm, I started to use it around 4pm and kept on playing a game till I stopped at 4 in the morning tuesday. Now it shows 3 bars while a green circle. From this nyko charger I had to charge the batterie almost every two days. What I don't get or understand, while I had a microsoft battery with kit and charge, I sometimes would charge the battery, meaning I don't have to use a charge for 2 or maybe 3 weeks. I would have 4 bars for 3 days at least then 3 bars for another 3 days but while it was 3 bars, it never once showed the green circle also never once shut off my controller to. From the microsoft kit and charge, from my playing habit like a day I would have to charge the batterie a day and need to charge it again maybe 2 weeks after.. From the nyko charger, I was charging the batterie every 2 or 1 day because it would go too 1 bar

I really hope no one gets mad, I wish i could edit it.. Nex time I will click preview.

Xbox 360 controllers : gamepad plugged but still "no devices found" ?

You have a Mac running on Lion or Mountain Lion, you have download the app http://files.tattiebogle.net/360/360ControllerInstall.dmg from :
http://tattiebogle.net/index.php/ProjectRoot/Xbox360Controller/OsxDriver
You have done everything right but when you plug your gamepad (official microsoft Xbox 360 controller only, I used a wired gamepad so, I don't assure you it will work with wireless), there are still "no devices found" ?
Fortunately for you, I have finaly found a way to make it work, without buying anything else.
First, go see the following MacRumors topic :

Follow the instructions (and when I mean follow, I mean follow exactly !)
At the 9th step, you have to enter the information about your device to make your computer recognize the information (I say it the simpler way)

Finish the instructions and, if everything's right, it should work

I'm getting the same thing. Did you ever resolve this? I'm also using the wireless controller.
Also, how do I keep the green guide button from constantly blinking? And, how do you turn off the controller?
Thanks for the info!
And in case anyone cares, it works great with Cave Story. Just plug and play, no setup needed. Haven't tried it with anything else yet.
EDIT:
Found the answer to my own questions at...
http://www.gentoo-wiki.info/HOWTO_Xbox_ … controller
No info on the mouse thing tho.
Nope, haven't found any solution yet but I would love to do so! Dmesg gives:
usb 4-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2
usb 4-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

usbcore: registered new interface driver xpad

If there is anything else needed to help me, i'll get it.
Edit:
Got it working now, use this: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Get … ns_Working guide and then it works

Xbox 360 controller (wired) and compatability with Windows 7

Ok, here's the scoop. I have an Xbox 360 controller and a plug 'n play kit for it. I have tried the normal solutions for hooking it up and getting it to recognize in Windows 7 (32 bit) Home Prem. Edition, and all I get is it is an 'Unspecified' device in the Control Panel, and as a result, it will not be recognized in games as a controller, and will not work. I have installed the proper drivers and the 360 Accessories for Windows, but even that doesn't recognize the controller when it is plugged into my USB 2.0 port. The driver is properly installed (Windows told me the driver was installed correctly when I first plugged in my controller, after installing the program from the Microsoft website), so I have no idea why it is not working. I have followed all the stepd that I can find. Please give me some assistance.

If you already have the software installed, go to programs and features and uninstall Microsoft XBOX 360 Accessories 1.2.
1) Download the drivers from http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/download/download.aspx?category=gaming
2) Choose Gaming > Xbox 360 Controller for Windows > Windows 7 64 bit > English.
Don’t run the drivers. Save them to a folder.
(Or Xbox 360 Wireless Controller for Windows depending on your controller)
3) Right click the Xbox360_64Eng file in the folder you downloaded to and click "create shortcut"
4) Right click the shortcut you created. Select properties.
5) On the compatibility tab in properties, click "Run this program in compatibility mode"
Choose Windows Server 2008 Service Pack 1 as the compatibility mode. Apply setting and click ok.
6) Right Click on the shortcut and select "Run as administrator"
7) With your controller plugged in go to Device Manager.
You should see Microsoft Common Controller for Windows Class. It located under Mice and other pointing if you do, you have arrived. If you don't, try this.
Continue only if you don’t see Microsoft Common Controller for Windows Class in Device Manager
8) Right click the unknown device that shows a problem.
9) Update Driver Software > Browse My computer for Driver Software > Let Me Pick from a List of Drivers
10) Choose Microsoft Common Controller for Windows Class > XBOX 360 Wireless Receiver for Windows
Ignore the warning.
Should work now.
Please help :( It's still not working! Your suggestions helped almost everything. I don't think there was the Microsoft Common Controller for Windows class/Xbox 360 Wireless Controller via Play and Charge Kit in Device Manager before I tried
your tips of reinstalling under that old service pack compatibility mode.
Now that I see that, I thought it'd be fixed... but no! If I run joy.cpl (the Game Controllers window) it still doesn't see my Xbox controller. It still isn't recognized by the actual 360 controller software for my PC.
I did try updating the drivers again in the device manager, and I am plugged into a Blue USB port. What else? Is it something to do with my battery pack or something? Help!!
I don't know if this will notify me of a response, so please feel free to email me at smorin1487 @ gmail

Xbox 360 Trade-In

I saw that you could trade in a Xbox-360 250 GB edition and then you could get the $100 coupon and $75 off of an xbox one. I want to do this but my xbox-360 is the 320 GB Modern Warfare 3 edition and I was wondering if it is still valid for the offer. Thank You.

Hello rocco88diger,
I'm glad to hear you're looking into upgrading your gaming experience with Best Buy. I'll be happy to answer your questions today.
Assuming your console is in working condition in line with the terms and conditions for trades, then yes, it will qualify for the $175 promotion. The additional trade-in value for the $100 gift card trade in value and the $75 off coupon will prompt during the trade as the associate assisting you goes through the transaction. It should be a fairly straight-forward process, but if you have any trouble in the store at the time I'd recommend asking to speak with a supervisor while you're there.
Have a great day!
