Re: 720p settings not remembered on shutdown and start

Dont you need component and not composite to run any of the Progressive scan HD settings ? - (not sure about NTSC consoles ).? The splash screen will only ever display 480i at bootup and then once XBMC loads it switches to you selected output.

You need to go into the settings > appearance > screen calibration.

Re: HDMI mod?

Apart from a single cable solution you are not going to achieve any video output improvements using the converter, you are still limited but the GPU capabilities of the xbox.

Re: User Experience Required for XBOX Accessory

I got a mad katz wheel for a whole $1 and a dance mat for not much more, they are pretty cheap these days so even if they dont use them you wont lose much.

It doesnt look too bad from what i see. Shock the piss out of it and let it filter. Just curious what kind of filter and pump do you use on that badboy? An aussie made Davey 1hp pump and a sand filter along with a chlorine dispenser, chlorine dispenser has made the world of difference , once i work...

Re: Xbox display unit

Either way. A nice set of speakers bolted on with an amp would make a fine Jukebox. Best thing about this setup either way is that is so much more portable that a standard cab. Set of rollers on the bottom back edge, (if it doesn't already), and it would be a "piece of piss" to move aroun...

Re: Xbox display unit

Oww my, it is a nice one. I thinking arcade controllers set it the panel and that would go nice in your entertainment room. I've seen a few of those but most are not as dressed up as that one. Bloody nice score BKO. Will make a great jukebox i reckon, i might put a halo or crystal console in there.

Re: TSOP Recovery help.

I believe you can boot with a chip and then once in the flash menu (hdd or disc) then you un-socket the chip and continue the flash, i know i have read that somewhere. If your soldering skills are good you could remove the tsop chip and replace it.
