you know how you got to my videos and then it lists the drives available such as E, SMB network share and so on.
I want to add one saying "incomming" and i want it to be in the location of say //192.168.1.54/incomming cause thats where all my torrents go to.
is there a file of somewhat i can add a string or two to in the program that will let me have this drive?

Hi
In the settings of my xbox, it allows me to set 16x9 and if my TV is PAL 60.
but theres no option where i can change the resolution, i've looked at an online video tutorial on how to do it, but in my xbox's display settings theres no option for that.
Anyone know what could be the problem? is my xbox old? or is it because my component cable isnt the official microsoft one.
Help

You need to modify your console to be NTSC. There are many guides out there that tell you how to do so.

cheers mate!
now i'll look into it

You'll need to use an exploit to run enigmahs ntsc<->pal video switcher app if your xbox isn't modded.

Bumping up an old thread.

Just picked up an Xbox original to use as a HTPC. Its already been 'toyed with' to do the stuff I need, so now I'm wondering what games should I look at getting for it.

Any recommendations?

I quite enjoyed Ninja Gaiden Black, and Timesplitters: Future Perfect.

Ninja Gaiden is a really fun (but difficult) sort of action / adventure / RPG, amazing game. I think I went through the entire game (takes about 18 - 20 hours first go) about 3 or 4 times total, ramping up the difficulty each time. Very good !

Timesplitters is a bit Goldeneye-esque so if you enjoyed Goldeneye on the 64, get it for sure.

Burnout series would get my vote.

Cool, i'll look around for Ninja Gaiden.

I have the typical HALO which bores me (FPS games are NOT made for consoles, HALO was good on PC but woeful on Xbox), Burnout Revenge, Tony Hawk 4 (love this game), Forza, Sega GT, Project Gotham

Any other suggestions anyone?
