xbox modding
Any advanced xbox modders out there?
There's been a question that has really bugged me for some time and I haven't found a clear answer. How do I easily change back to the original dashboard which has a decent dvd player? XBMC sucks in dvd playing department. I have xenium modchip and I load EvoX bios from it and then I use the XBMC as the dashboard (I don't use my xbox for anything else than playing media). I renamed it to evoxdash.xbe to make the evox bios load it straight and it has worked perfectly. But I would like to run original MSDash for just playing dvd's.

Well, you could try a different dashboard.
The original would probably have to be taken from another Xbox. Wish I knew more (or even had an xbox). Looks fun. |

I'm not familiar with your modchip, but is it one with a "on/off" switch? My Xecutor can be turned off when I want to use the original dash or play live. If yours doesn't have a switch, I can't think of any easy way to switch back to switch other than to use something like Evolution X (which allows you to switch to the original dash if you want), or XBMP (different, of course than XBMC). I haven't had any problems with XBMP at all.

No swithces in Xenium but I use EvolutionX (EvoX) like I said in the first post. I have the original bios there flashed in the Xenium (selectable) but the thing just doesn't boot and whines about service.
If I choose EvoX bios it of course tries to run evolutionx.xbe (which is actually in my case xbmc.xbe renamed) but dunno what file the original bios is trying to load... default.xbe I think. I have to double-check that the original dashboard is indeed the default.xbe...

Actually I'm in the reverse situation. I don't want to use the controller and I have the dongle and the remote. I tried to use DVDX but it requires controller
