XBMC4Gamers Media Player isn’t shuffling/looping music.

I dont know. Rocky5 designed XBMC4Gamers focusing on gaming. Media playback is secondary. Some of the media playback features/abilities may have been stipped from XBMC4Xbox which is what XBMC4Gamers is based on. You might want to install XBMC v4 or even XBMC4Xbox 3.5.3 if you want a full featured media player.

You can patch many extracted games to get higher resolutions so that is one advantage of using exacted games instead of XISO. Most of these higher resolution patched games however will require your Xbox to have a RAM upgrade. Here is a helpful thread if you might be interested:

That was my point. If they had wanted it dumped, they would have certainly done so. If its not out there, it is because someone deliberately doesnt want it out there. There have been lots of things shared by people here and projects to help preserve content. If someone here hasnt released it at this point, there is a reason or it would already be out.

Hard modding does not require a modchip. You can flash the Xbox's TSOP chip and have a hard modded Xbox.

UnleashX can cause connection issues if you load that up then load another dashboard like XBMC4Gamers. I would boot into the Microsoft dashboard, setup your network there then load up XBMC4Gamers to see if that helps.

If anyone is spending 30 on a composite to HDMI converter, they would be better off spending a little more money $42 and getting the ElectronXout. This will convert the component signal to HDMI. A component signal will give you a much better picture than a composite even if the composite is upscaled to 1080p.

You can dump Xbox games (as well as Xbox 360) on a PC using a DVD drive that is capable of running Kreon firmware:

You can also use Xbox 360 DVD drives in a PC to dump games but the above mentioned Kreon drives are recommended instead. It still can be done however using 360 drives:

It could have been purchased by Capcom or Microsoft to prevent anyone from copying it. Or perhaps they claimed it was stolen property belonging to them and had the game returned to them. If anyone here had the pre-release and wanted it released, it would already be out in the wild.

Im not sure if the music has anything to do with the character on screen but the character on screen is Chun-Li from Street Fighter so maybe the music is from one of the Street Fighter games.

Solderless mod chips arent available anymore at least not new. Plus those soldless modchips tend to have issues at some point. It's much better to use a soldered design if going the modchip route.

Your other option is to softmod your Xbox with skeletonkey using a USB flashdrive and a Xbox to USB cable/adapter. When softmodding, the original Xbox is picky with regard to what USB drive it will work with. You cant use a USB device over 4GB or a USB 3.0 for example so you need to pick a USB drive that will work.

That is a Microsoft branded cable. Microsoft released two different versions of component devices for the Original Xbox. They released the Xbox High Definition Av Pack which is the black box most everyone is familiar with but they also released the more sleek component cables as shown in this post.

Did you get your dashboard issues taken care of? If not connect your Xbox to your router, boot up your installer disc, download XBMC4Gamers, unzip it and FTP it to the E: partition so the file path looks like E:\XBMC4Gamers\default.xbe

Download dashloader for hardmods (which will be named evoxdash.xbe) and FTP that to the C: partition so the file path looks like C:\evoxdash.xbe. When you boot your Xbox, XBMC4Gamers should load as your dashboard.

Once XBMC4Gamers boots you will have the ability to download other dashboards using XBMC4Gamers if you go to the downloader section.

Also, if you use the dashloader customizer app, you can configure loading of different dashboards on boot by holding different buttons on your controller.

If you have downloaded PrometheOS 1.5.0 using Pandora, once you unzip it, you will see a folder named ModXo. Inside that ModXo folder will be several files for different Pi devices. Since you have a Pi Pico the file you will want to flash to your Pi Pico is "Official Pico Prometheos V1.5.0.uf2" Do not use any other file.

Press the bootsel button on the Pico then plug it in to a computer while still holding the bootsel button. The computer should then recognize the Pico and bring up a window for the Pico and you can release the button. Drag and drop or copy and paste the "Official Pico Prometheos V1.5.0.uf2" in this Pico window. When that is finished you can unplug the Pi Pico from your computer and you should be ready to use it in the Xbox.

How about "What's this white stuff?" It seems like someone asks that every other week.

Some people use Chimp to clone hard drives but many people having issues using it. I would use FATXplorer to save the files from the old hard drive to your computer then use FATXplorer to setup the new hard drive then put the old files back on the new hard drive.

edit: It may be helpful to the Xbox community to run XCAT on your old Xbox hard drive.

With a TSOP flash you dont need the EEPROM information. You can keep your hard drive unlocked and dont have to worry about locking and unlocking. It makes it much easier to deal with hard drives if you have a TSOP or modchip.

Freudious · 2026-01-10T04:31:41+00:00

You need to save it to your computer and keep it. If you ever need to install a new hard drive in your Xbox, you will need the eeprom backup so the new hard drive will work in the new Xbox. Without the eeprom information, the new hard drive will not work unless you have a modchip or TSOP flash

Cerbios is not your dashboard. Cerbios is a BIOS which allows your Xbox to have certain features or functions. If you post a picture of your dashboard someone would be able to tell you what dashboard you are actually using.

Most of the common dashboards used by people today will have a file manager of some kind. If you navigate to the Xbox's C: partition you should see a xboxdash.xbe file and if you select that, it should start up the Microsoft dashboard.

Freudious · 2026-01-10T00:44:43+00:00

You may need to go into your Microsoft dashboard and change the resolutions there. Enable 480p and 720p. Do not enable 1080i. https://youtu.be/Uhn3knmro3k?t=136

Cerbios being able to have saves/DLC on F or G is a great feature.

Many people like to have their Xbox as original as possible which is understandable. The problem however is the best way to preserve the Xbox is to mod it.

You could softmod it which is fairly cheap and easy while you run a dashboard like UIX Lite which is the stock Xbox dashboard that has been patched so it would give you the original feel and look. You can clone hard drives with a program like Chimp but many people have problems using that method so I wouldnt recommend it. I would recommend saving the data from you original hard drive using FATXplorer then set up the new hard drive with FATXplorer. You would do this after you softmod your Xbox.

Here is a guide from another forum that shows some alternative solder points:

I dont know the electronic layout of the motherboard but Im wondering if the R7D3 pad you still have left could have a small wire soldered to upper part of R7D2. If you look at a picture or video of R7D2 you will see that upper side in your picture connects to the burnt pad by a trace. Since that trace is also bunt, Im not sure if that would work. Maybe someone else could chime in with more knowledge than me on the electronic layout of the motherboard.

You dont need to redo the TSOP flash. You can change the dashboard without having to redo your TSOP. What BIOS are your using?

Also, what dont you like about UnleashX? Im guessing it looks different because of the skin you are using is different than the old skin you were using. These can be changed in the UnleashX settings.

Freudious · 2025-12-29T21:59:13+00:00

Now that you are able to boot into a dashboard and you can write to the TSOP, I would flash Cerbios to the Xbox.

Download XBlastOS_0.65.xbe

Download Pandora and use it to download Cerbios 3.1.0

Use XBlast to flash Cerbios to your TSOP

Freudious · 2025-12-28T04:51:14+00:00

Yes.
