I have been noticing that when I play DVDs in my 360, the side edges of the screen are stretched while the middle area is fine.  It has been doing this with all my DVDs (widescreen, like bourne ultimatum, pirates of the caribbean).  I have tried changing stretch/native etc in the options, but it doesnt make a difference.  Any ideas?  I know I used to have a TV that had an option for that, but it was for 4:3 shows to fill the screen without stretching the whole thing. 

This is on a 1080p TV with component cables, and 360 set to 1080p.

Could well be your actual TV options, make sure it's set to 16:9 and not to stretch the picture (it could be zoomed in a bit or something).

Wow, I have no clue why I didnt think of that.  It was set to stretch, and I changed it to dot by dot.  Thanks.

Yes you can do it, but if you dont know how to do it, you probably can't :lol:

Do i have to buy anything? Would someone want to give me easy step by step instructions please.

If you need step by step instructions, theres no way youre gonna be able to do it.  Besides., you need a clean key from another 360 console.  So, unless youve got a unbanned, spare 360, forget it.

I think it's basically confirmed that the new dashboard update will include xvid/divx support.

Booya!

But does this mean no XB360MC?

I don't really see the point anymore...

I wont be going online for a few days starting dec. 4th.  Gotta wait and see if there is a mass-banning lol.

the 360 interface can never be compared to XBMC, XBMC IS and allways will BE the ultimate media center. If the linux version goes live im gonna dump windows 4 sure

DIVX support works great!  I have been watching all my divx movies and shows today, so glad I dont have to convert crap anymore.

Any news on this patch banning users from xbox live again?

#862794 by tijafasn (Power User) at 2007-12-05 21:08:47 (5 years ago) - [Quote] - [Report]Top

I dont think there have been any bannings yet.  My guess is that if they are going to ban, they will collect info over time and ban everybody at once.  I guess i can update my xbox now.

Is it possible to get the latest update when I cannot connect to Live (not even with Silver)?
I think I remember something about burning the update to a CD or whatever.

yah you can but they haven't updated it yet, keep checking this site
http://www.xbox.com/en-US/support/syste … pdates.htm

#864729 by mcatrage (Power User) at 2007-12-09 00:56:42 (5 years ago) - [Quote] - [Report]Top

Try this Wednesday.  The update was last Wednesday and since Silver gets everything a week late I'd assume they'd also put the update online for those without internet a week late.

even with silver you can get the update on live... I did, just update the console, then go to play a video and it will get you to download the update for the codec.
