divx movies will play on your xbox no problems
but trying to copy a movie straight from a bought dvd wont work
you have to rip it to your pc and turn it into a avi or whatever.
did you copy it using the same program as you use for games.. dvd2xbox or whatever its called..
it just gives you the raw files.
someone correct me if im wrong and it is possible.

yes i used the dvd2xbox program, i had a feeling i couldnt play it, and i dont have a dvd drive on my pc to convert it 
with the divX movies that are on DVD, how can i watch them on xbox? it wont copy with dvd2xbox, will one of the other programs work? can i then use the media player to view them?

yea not that easy, the 10gb or 8gb drive depending on what model it is wont be able to hold many games you will need a larger hdd any IDE PC hdd will do but someone who knows what there doin to set it up, there partitioned differently to a normal pc hdd.
i have my xbox flashed, didnt require a chip and cost me a carton of beer and bought a 120gb hdd.
look in the traddingpost, heaps of people can do it

You will need a modchip in your xbox. This will allow you to read burnt media, and allow you to install a larger harddrive. Normal Xbox hard drives are around 10 gig, nowhere near enough information. EvoX is the easiest dashboard to use, you put that on once you have chipped and installed a new harddrive. It becomes your main menu of sorts.
You can copy games to your HDD, there are SNES, Genesis and N64 emulators out there, so it can be heaps of consoles in one. Xbox Media Center is awesome and lets you play DVDs, Movies, Music Etc... It can even read files on discs that EvoX and many others cannot.
Generally I will get episodes of shows like Lost, SG1, Battlestar, etc from people at work, I burn the files to DVD, chuck them in my Xbox and watch them on my widescreen.
There is heaps of stuff you can do with a chipped Xbox, a lot more versatile than just letting you pirate games.

dude, the xbox is essentially a pc crammed into a sexy case, you can do everything on that, that you can on a PC.
everything.
those 4 ports at the front for controllers are USB ports, just weird looking.

Mines similar to eviljacks cept i did it my self
Soft modded with a 120gig hard drive, i hackored it my self, lots of information on the net, no modchip needed and works like a charm, not sure on later models as im a bit outa the loop
My xbox has permanent cat5 running to it and it accesses movies and music off my file server
as for EVOSTi i suggest you get on the internet and work out how to use FTP as its one of the only ways to get files onto the xbox over a network Im pretty sure you could make a bootable CD that booted into media player, bit if u have a moded hard drive there is no reason not to install it on the hard drive.
FTP is pretty simple if you can use windows explorer you can use an FTP (explorer acts as an FTP  )
Just go to the IRC chan i told you about, follow the instructions the bot tells you then you can just go to ftp://username:password@ftp.server.com in your internet explorer bar, should be able to download the latest version
Short of writing a step by step guide i cant help you anymore, so might have to find someone local who can be convinced to help for sexual favours (or non sexual, but we all know sexual is teh best) or go without

I rececntly did mine and it was super easy.
Soldering iron and solder - $20 at dick stiff
Executer 2.6CE Lite - just shy of $50 delivered Divineo HK (took 2-3 days)
160Gig HDD - $140 from a random computer store in chinatown
Heaps of info on the net http://www.xbox-scene.com
Find out what version of XBOX you have and read the readily avaiable modification instructions for the chip you are buying before you go ahead with anything.
The easiest way to do things once your chip is installed and flashed and your HDD is in, is to make a boot disk with a dashboard and utils on it. This will allow you to boot via the disk, reformat your new drive and FTP the necessary files accross to it. If you boot up before you replace your drive, you can also copy your old save games off to put on your new drive.

I've never been a fan of any of the GT games, they've never really done anything for me. I can't stand "realistic" racing games without damage either.
Microsofts Forza racing is being released soon. Supposedly better physics and damage too.
I've never liked the sony controllers. The analogue L and R buttons on the Xbox are a must for racing games.
There are plenty of fun games on both consoles. GTA: San Andreas is my fav PS2 game, but thats only because it was released on PS2 first and I wasn't going to wait nine months for it to arrive on PC.
Being able to run emulators for older consoles on a modded Xbox makes it the best party console. Also, networking four Xbox's and having a 16 player LAN on Halo 2 is awesome fun.

Forza motor sport is going to kill GT 4 in ever way possible, This game has got the most realistic handling, braking and speed simiulation that is out. If you smash your car in forza, the car will actually damage and it by smashin it will also effect the performance of the car, unlike GT 4 were you can go 300km into a wall and the bounch off it and the car still drives.
Forza may not have the 700 cars that gt 4 boasts it has but really half the cars on gt 4 are pieces of shit that you wouldnt even consider using to race in were as forza has the creme della creme of the automotive industry.

I like the Xbox for the modchip experience - no load times off the Hard-disk my friends! Waiting for GT4 to spin in the PS2's drive is teh POOOH! I use teh Xbox as a cd player, DVD player, Movie repository etc. more than I play games on it now!
The only downside is I haven't got a switch to turn off the modchip, so I can't use my fully hektic broadband connection to go "Live!"

i have both ps2 and xbox, and the xbox is covered in dust and is left to one side... why? because the games are teh shitz0r.
what ps2 lacks in length, girth and sheer power, it makes up for in technique, its not how big your processor is, its how you use it!
and about the shit your giving gt4, you realise its a racing sim and not destruction derby? i doubt you have any idea how time consuming and expensive it is to generate code and models for damage?
in order for it to be the "perfect" sim, aswell as the perfect "crash" sim, it would have to have more capacity, would take about a year and a half longer to be released, the game would be so slow it would be like 80 year olds running a marithon, AND the loading times would be so long you can get up, have a piss, fix that annoying clunking sound in your engine bay, give your car a clean and polish, have a shower, make yourself some cereal, eat it, then sit down to play one 3 lap race.
in terms of a racing simulator, GT4 is god, forza may try, but the fact is, more cars, better gameplay will always win.
im not praising ps2, first off, i think the controller is something saddam hussein designed to give us all arthritis, but face it, its smaller, lighter, better looking and has more games than the xbox. japanese companies pretty much invented great games, yet xbox has no japanese developers!
and, one last thing, the xbox was purchased first with birthday money.
the ps2 was bought later because it was on special at $240 (this was 2 years back) at mega mart, including a free platinum game and a memory card, interestingly, that platinum game was gt3

racing simulations should be simulations. as someone else put earlier, what's a simulation without damage? i dont consider a racing game without damage to be a simulation, just an arcade game. which, mind you, are fun in their own right, but definitely cannot be called a simulation
the game would be agonizingly slow on the ps2, but with the xbox's hard drive, not so
gt4, again, as someone else put it, has heaps of slightly different versions of the cars, making up a lot of the numbers. most of the "duplicates" you would never bother to play, as well as some of the lower cars, simply shoved into gt4 to make up numbers
and seriously, i dont really care which console is lighter, smaller, as in my case, it's just going to sit there. i hardly ever move it around. also, i dont mind if it's chunky as long as it has the brains to back it up. i reckon the xbox is "better looking" than the ps2, because it reflects its abilities also, in regard to the volume of games, the ps2 has been out for how much longer than the xbox? and already had a cult following

You can still have not proved to me how GT4 has better game play when forza boasts more realistic features, in my opinion the demo of forza in which you get to race on laguna seca, the game play is alot feel of it is alot better then racing on the same track in GT4 , which makes it more of a simulator. And the fact is if they had a game on PS2 that was on the same level as forza it proably would lag as the xbox is a more powerfull machine that could handle alot more then the PS2.

PS2 is heaps better in my opinion, sure the graphics aren't as good but the game selection drops cosby's all over xbox's. The punisher is fkn awesome, not as good as manhunt, but still fkn great. You get to kill people american history X style!

ill say it again:
how much longer has the ps2 been out than the xbox?
the ps2 already had a cult following, both in customers and developers respects
and seriously, heaps of the games are really similar

um, something about XBOXes
if you dont want to pay micro$oft money to play xbox on the interweb you can allways use xbconnect, which is free, and you can play your legitimate backup games on it too.
as for the divexes, if this hasen't been answered, here is what you do if you dont have a dvdrom on your PC
network to your xbox using flashFXP
go to your dvdrom directory, copy the divexes to your PC, then FTP them back on to your xbox in your video directory.

xbox and forza both eat asshole,
the idea of a RACING sim is that you stay on the track, you stay away from other racers, because, after all, it is a RACE and not destruction derby.
whine whine whine, the end result is, ps2 has more games, the games are better, more people own ps2,
and on top of all that, i couldnt really give two shits about what you guys think because you obviously arent me and what you think doesnt affect me in the slightest.
ok, now, let get back to admiring the great b00bs of this world

exactly!
just cos you have damage, doesnt mean its gonna be a "destruction derby", it just means you'll have to become a better (virtual) driver
