I've just soft-modded my son's XBox and am extremely relieved that it still all works! I then installed XBox Media Centre and XbmcMythtv. I can see the program guide and list of recorded programs which is really exciting but when I try to play a recording I get "Access Denied". To start with I thought this may have been because of an error in the way I set up the smb:// path string to the recordings. However, I subsequently saw a post which said that only MPEG2 is supported and as I'm MPEG4 I was wondering whether this may be what's causing the Access Denied message. Anyone have any ideas on that?
What other options would I have apart from installing a linux distro on the XBox and running Mythfrontend proper? I'm a bit reluctant to install linux on there as a) it's an old XBox with a small hard disk, and b) the startup times won't be anything like as convenient as running the python scripts under XBMC. I saw something about Gentoox MCE for Xbox -does anyone know how disk hungry this is, whether it supports MPEG4, general comments etc?
