mc360It took nearly six months for Team Blackbolt to create the Media Center 360 (MC360) skin for the Xbox Media Center and by the looks of it, the hardwork and the sleepless nights paid off. The long wait is over but it doesn't mean Team Blackbolt is going to slow down, in fact, their still at it. They're fixing the pesky bugs and gearing up for the enhancements and features that you have requested.

For those who are still in the dark ages, MC360 or Media Center 360 is a skin UI for Xbox Media Center (XBMC). It's a free homebrew media application for the Xbox. You need a modded Xbox to use XBMC and also MC360. MC360 uses the new 2.0 version of the skinning engine in XBMC.

MC360 comes with English language as default. Just a friendly note, MC360 will not run correctly on any build of XBMC made before 06/06/06, this is why T3CH release is recommended. It comes bundled with the skin, so you don't have to go searching for it somewhere else.

Wow

I don't use the dash on Xbox 1 much, and never did, but this is cool! And #1, you cannot tell me you would rather look at the crap that is the Xbox 1 dashboard over this.

errm, this isnt just the Xbox Dash that has been skinned

Thug and e-Thug, you do realise that this isnt just the original Xbox dashboard that has been skinned into to performing like the 360 dashboard. It is Xbox Media Center.... Xbox Media Center kicks the nuts out of the 360's media capabalities, and at the same time it now looks relatively the same as the 360's UI.

DVR-MS

The thing that really annoys me is that you cannot stream DVR-MS to XBMC so cannot use in conjunction with XBox 360 media center extender. It can be done by pre-converting you DVR-MS files to MPEG or WMV but then it is not listed in My TV on 360 media center and has to be added to My Videos. Bit annoying tho

xbmc is still aweseome

streaming divx stuff through transcode on your 360 isnt the best, and thats why i still use xbmc. it does have a lot of great stuff, and personally i was waiting for something like this becuase i love the 360 dash. good job team.
