How to update xbmc on my xbox




















Congratulations, now you are all set and don't need to alter the shortcut again, unless you change location of XBMC's default. This way is only recommended for experienced users. Changing your bios may cause your XBOX to not boot any more.

Note you will not be able to use this method if you intend to persist with an X2 Circled in the picture is where you set your custom boot path for your bios The diagram is for XBTool but EVTool is almost identical in interface and execution. Then save the bios with the edited boot-path you can also edit the 2nd and 3rd boot sequences- they will only load if there is no. First of all you will need to know what size of bios your mod-chip takes. Having a bootdisk in this situation will not help you!

Once the bios has been correctly sized and saved, choose the method of flashing your bios. Older modchips will need to be flashed from the Xbox- Apps like XFlash and the EvoX dash both have the options to do this you will need to ftp the edited bios over to their default bios directories. Newer mod-chip owners may be able to flash their bios externally via their pc using their Modchip Manufacturer's software and either a parallel or USB cable to connect to their mod-chip.

Download here: Xbe Shortcut Maker v1. Creates shortcut xbes for Xbox titles keeping your current method of organization intact so you can keep your hard drive roots as uncluttered as possible, as well as add items to dash menus without moving or creating duplicate installs.

Simply point the target path to the xbe you wish to launch and the output xbe will be a 60kb shortcut that will simply launch the given title. It will now save a shortcut XBE, 60kB in size.

Don't forget to backup any files on C: if you plan to overwrite them! Below, are the bios boot sequences for the most widely used modded bioses that people use to run Xbox Backups and Home-brew Applications. Each bios will have one or more. The numbers by the side of the different. For example for x2 , on startup, the bios will look to launch evoxdash. If it is there then the. If there is no evoxdash. So once you've found out which bios you have your current dash should be able to tell you this information , use the chart to work out what you should rename XBMC's default.

Did the typical soft mod through Mechassault and installed the Unleashx dashboard. Then I copied the file contents from the second XBMC folder the one that wasn't running, of course to the dashboard folder and boom success.

I believe it works because it appears that all typical xbox apps are named 'default. Reboot the box and delete any extra copies of XBMC and you're done. It is recommended to do so often, as XBMC is changed on a daily basis. Before you start, read the README that came with your build, or read the changelog to make sure no special instructions exist for your build such as the requirement to remove the skin or database files completely etc. First make a backup of The UserData Folder. Then ftp the files mentioned in the last section to the folder that contains XBMC on your Xbox, overwriting existing files.

Those files are: default. Skip the UserData folder. At times, major changes to the XBMC software will cause issues with upgrading. Use the following procedures to remedy this problem:.

Also, ensure that you are using a clean install of XBMC, one that uses no information or files from a previous build, such as the UserData folder and its contents. It is the build i used for this instructable. It is in a. Only the files inside the folder will be used. The folder contains all the files that will make your xbox into a fully updated xbmc. You can download the apple movie trailers video plugin and any other plugins that you may want from the svn repo installer program once you're done.

Fire up your favorite FTP client program and connect to your xbox. I like to use Filezilla because its free on all platforms so whether you use windows, linux or mac it will work.

You should already know how to ftp into your xbox but if you don't the host is your xbox's ip address, the user name is xbox the password is also xbox and the port is That's all that is needed so turn your xbox off turn it back on again and it will boot up to the current xbmc build.

Now if you accidentally get a Red Ring of Death and your xbox will no longer boot into anything and tells you that it needs service dont worry.

If you have a mod chip installed then you know more about your particular system than i do and im sure you know how to fix this. If you used a softmod on your xbox then youll be fine. All you need to do is stick the game in that you used to mod you xbox, in my case it was the splinter cell game, and get back into your softmod install menu.

From there you can FTP back into your xbox hard drive and re transfer the dashboard files. Of course the rrod fix is only for this type of problem and would not work for other RRoD causes. The reason you can fix this is because the xbox which is essentially a Pentium 3 computer has a boot priority of dvd drive first then hard drive.

Although i never ran into this RRoD problem when i was updating my dashboard it helps to know how to fix it if it was to happen to you like if your xbox lost power mid transfer and wouldn't reboot.

Now the skins are the biggest change to the xbmc system. Confluence is the best looking skin in the build in my opinion and it would be the best way to keep your xbmc but in my experience it freezes all the time. You change the skin by going to settings and picking your favorite skin. Ive found that the PM3HD skin has a cover flow view for your scanned movies like itunes cover flow.

Its pretty cool. Reply 5 years ago. What is imd bios? You could always start over. Redo the softmod and go from there. It is hard to know what problem you are having without being there myself. I stopped using the xbox to stream video a few years ago in favor of the raspberry pi but I can try to help.
