I wonder how cool it runs. X-BOX’s are notoriously hot, but I personally believe most of the problem was Microsoft’ inability to built a proper case, which this guy has replaced.

inch-thick package eh? my package is bigger. anyways… cool xbox

Reminds me of my Popcorn Hour NMT, looks like its cousin. Amazing work, I would also like to add that the original xbox is hands down your best STV Media Center choice by far when considering cost vs performance. $35 for what it can do is unreal.

I recently traded a softmodded xbox with xbmc+loaded with emus and roms (strictly legal ones :) ) for a xbox360 = thats how stoked people are on it.

I often suggest this to owners of older laptops with broken screens. It just isn’t cost effective to replace the screen most times.

Beautiful work. I’m partial to the blue LED style, and the vents look properly sized where needed. Any info on running temps while playing movies? I’ll check the link when I get to a network that doesn’t block that website.

@na:
h264 plays fine, as long as it isn’t above 640×480. my old xbox is what i would watch all my anime on, way back when, since i only had a p2 laptop at the time.

Xbmc is capable of playing some 720p material flawlessly, I don’t remember it exactly, but the videos needs to be formatted a certain way. I remember finding videos in this format. I watched some planet earth 720p.

Holy crap! I though Xbox modding was dead, but man that makes me wanna try it.

Countdown to the RROD begins….

We’re sorry we cant honor your warranty as the system has been tampered with or modified.

Umm, Xbox. Not Xbox 360…

As in the older – truly arse-huge XBox.

I think slimmest home theater PC still has to go to the popcorn hour… albeit it can’t play games it does full 1080p video, streaming, surfing, and supports a bazillion formats.

I was {search|hunt|look}ing for something {similar to|like} this {the other da|yesterda|recentl}y.
