360 HD DVD player update on its way |
Ó
If you own an Xbox 360 HD DVD player, you may want to get ready. we just got word that there's an update scheduled for the device sometime today.According to a post on the AVS forums by Amir Majidimehr, corporate vice president for Microsoft's Consumer Media Technology Group,
It is my pleasure to let you all know that the HD DVD update for Xbox 360 is slated for release on 5/15 (i.e. tomorrow!). So when you wake up in the morning, you should be able to upgrade your software. And me free from telling you when are going to get it . Hope you all download it and provide feedback on what you think!
We have no word yet on what's going to be in the update, but as soon as we get wind of what's in store for HD DVD player users, we'll be sure to let you know. Until then, check to see if there's an update on your respective boxes, alright?
Over at the AV Science Forums, we found word from Dr_Know on what will be the updates included for the HD DVD audio come May 15th. Mind you, this list is entirely separate form the Spring Dashboard update that was released last May 7th.
Anyway, why don't you check out the full list so you'd at least have an idea of what we're waiting for:
- Fix DD being stuck in "Night Mode" which is essentially Dynamic Range Compression leading to the sound sounding very flat
- Option to output ALL HD DVD audio as DTS 1.5Mbps (list includes DD+, TrueHD, DTS, and any other audio option offered on HD DVD discs I may have missed)
- Option to output ALL HD DVD audio as DD 640Kbps, (which it currently does, but will be fixed from the Night Mode bug), list includes DD+, TrueHD, DTS, and any other audio option offered on HD DVD discs that I may have missed.
- Option to output ALL HD DVD audio as WMAPro 1.5Mbps, (list includes DD+, TrueHD, DTS, and any other audio option offered on HD DVD discs I may have missed) for those receivers that support WMA.
- Option to enable/disable Night Mode (with the default set to off)
- Fix a number of disc incompatibilities (including DVD Essentials) as well as a number of Lip Sync issues.

How much do you wanna bet that they lock out the key that was discovered?
Its been locked, since the day it was posted up on all the websites. Had people not posted it repeatedly all over the internet then it might have actually done a few people some good. Ironic, considering the people who did post it thought they were helping kill HD, when all they did was strengthen their security. But thats what happens when fools get a hold of some information.
just hope you wont brick your addon lol
I wish there was a way to eject the HD DVD drive from the remote. THere's only an option to play the HD DVD, open and play the 360's drive.
That really bugs me too! lol, why did they give me a universal remote with my HDDVD add-on and then have the eject button only eject my game? it's really annoying too when you close the drive and it loads your game... GRRRRrrrrrr...
How about I brick your face, fantard? Are you lost? Did you forget how to spell ps3.qj.net?
the HD-DVD, before the release the big update for the console. If it's one thing M$ does really well is brick consoles.
What a cheap POS.
If it's one thing fantards do well, it's make up BS about consoles they don't own. Go back home, ass hole.
With names like M$hater, and such a convincing arument..im just dumbfounded. You PS3 fantards are some well writen individuals.
