Consider me to be an idiot - How do I install?

Post by Villordsutch »

Hello all,

I have recently changed from my old computer to a new one. My old computer had Windows 7 Home Edition (let us say this wasn't overly official) and connected to the XBox360 fine.

Now I have a new computer which has come with Windows 7 Starter, which I have discovered doesn't have Media Centre and I cannot connect it to my XBox.

Looking through the web you program was recommended, but I am unsure on how to install it. I've had a look around the forum but for the life of me I cannot find it. Can anyone help?

Also can I ask a couple of questions :-

- Will installing this software have my XBox banned from XBox Live?
- Using this software can I show videos, pictures, music from my PC to my XBox?

Thank you

XBMC4XBOX is for the original, older, XBOX not the XBOX 360.

As far as I know you just need the latest version of windows media player, the actual OS doesn't matter.

I thank you very much :D

I never knew and when you mentioned it here I ran off to have a look and found this - http://inaudiblewhisper.wordpress.com/2 ... windows-7/

A user called Tombstonex listed a very easy walk through near the bottom :D

Thank you

I must ask and please don't flame me. I'm well aware of the fact that this is for XBOX1 and not the 360 but since some of the "apps" from the older xbox still works on JTAG / RGH consoles. Would it be possible to run this as a stand alone or via an old file browser?

I think I remember reading somewhere that there was some way to run XBMC with the use of the 360's backwards compatibility emulator but that the experience wasn't that great. That should be enough information to get you going. There was also another media player released earlier this year for the 360 that was supposed to work fairly well but I can't remember the name of it right now. It was pretty simple compared to XBMC though.

Take a look at this guide which will explain how to upgrade to a newer build. For IceFilms I would suggest installing Jans build which you can find here although at the time of posting this he doesn't yet have a download link (it will be there soon). It's an ideal build to use for noobs as everything comes pre-installed - it also has the amazing [removed] addon which is similar to icefilms (better in my opinion).
