Alright, i have 2 questions.
1: Does anyone know exactly what codecs the xbox 360 uses to play video because i'm going to install another 2.5"HDD inside the box for videos and music.

2: What colour paint do you guys recommend i should paint the beast. I was thinking of maybe Ferrari Red and putting a Ferreri emblem in the corner of it, or maybe some sort of Halo colour/Motif?

Any ideas?

Thanks

Pred

Sorry man, no chance of playing video off of the hard drive. The only way I've found is to stream it from a Media Center PC, or burn it to a disk and play it (as a dvd disk). I'm going to experiment tonight with burning other formats to disk, just to check it out.

If your any good with an airbrush...you should paint it flat black with a ghost red/orange/yellow flame job. Makes sence due to the fact that they are all ready to burst into flames anyway.

I've always been partial to blue. I'd love to find someone that could paint my case to match the "hot rod" faceplate. I just don't think I could go without the 360 for long enough to do the painting though Wink.


For reference, here's the faceplate I'm talking about:
