Hello,
I want to install one of the media players allowing me to play divx, mpegs, mp3's etc.

I'm hoping to just get hold of a disc that will automatically load this stuff on for me as I don't really want to link my xbox with my pc and what have you.

Can anyomne tell me what the best media player is supposed to be and if one can generally get hold of these install discs?

p.s. just to add i don't have any other software on the xbox so I'm asking if theres discs that auto install the xbmp or whatever.


Cheers

i assume you have a chip in your xbox? because that is neccessary to run xbmc.

the only option you have of an installer is auto installer deluxe which i can give you the torrent link to and you can find more info about it here.

As mentioned above, XBMC is what you want, not XBMP. Xbox Media Player is an out of date project. XBMC (XBOX Media Center) is the most up to date media player. Anyways, there are two ways of getting it installed straight to your XBOX. 1. Is using the new Auto-Installer mentioned above. 2. Is using Slayer's Evox Auto-Installer V2.6. Simply burn the file to DVD-R and pop it in your XBOX and it will boot up and then simply follow the instructions. It installs with the push of about 2-3 buttons on your controller. XBMC is just one of the many useful apps that both installers will put on your HD for you. Just note, that you will need to backup your save game files before using these installers or you will lose them (both of them need to format your HD).
