Doh, I need to install a new build of XBMC, but I can't find a good comprehensive build .

 

[imported_Kensai]

Yes they are.. I prefer newer computers though. The XBox is just a three year old computer.

 

[Umberger]

what mod do you have in the box?

If you can't hook a computer up to your TV, you're posting at the wrong site!

I do know how to, but svideo output to TV still doesn't look as good and not as cool as playing it through the xbox.

Besides for the xbox, you can also get free *cough* what?

The ability to play xbox games? And a $99 price tag?

 

[Maximus96]

whats the latest build version? the version i have can't connect to my pc. even though XBMC sees my pc it won't let me connect. but i can ftp to the xbox just fine. maybe the new version will help.

Weird, I suddenly lost the use of streaming to my xbox for some reason, but I can ftp via avalaunch as well.

I like the fact that through XBMC and an ethernet connection, I can stream most media through my computer to the Xbox to watch on my 65" Mitsubishi Television

SVideo? Ewwwww....
Even if you use that, MCE looks great.

how big is your computer? how much does it weigh? can you take it to a friends house in a backpack and have a great time? can you easily play four player mario kart or smash brothers on it? how does it look sitting in your living room? how muhc did it cost?

just saying...xbox has its advantages, obviously its not as powerful as new pcs...

actually the build of xbmc i'm using was the one i downloaded from within avalaunch...dated 7-24, and it works great.

make sure that your xboxmediacenter.xml file has the correct passwords for your windows shares...

My MCE box isn't much bigger than an XBox. And yes, I have all sorts of emulators, launched from the MCE shell, with wireless controllers. And it looks a HELL of a lot better than an XBox! Can you record TV shows and burn them to dvd all with a remote with your XBox?

No, but again can your MCE box play xbox games and cost as little as an xbox?
