Want to get your MP3´s to your unit? Or watching yor pictures? Change your
Dashboard?
Then read on.
And yes, you can stream music and pictures from your PSP.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- 9.1. Music -
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So you want to listen to ABBA when you play Perfect Dark Zero? No problems.
First you need to get the music to your unit. There is 3 ways that I can think
of doing that.
1. Rip it from your CD. This is so much faster then what it was on the original
X-Box.
2. From USB. Connect your portable music player or memory stick and you can
stream the music from it. It supports the MP3, Wav and WMA format.
It also supports playlists in wpl and m3u format.
You shall be able to download a patch that allows you to listen to ACC
music, as long as it was NOT downloaded frm iTunes. But MP3 in your IPod
works great.
3. From PC. Stream it from your XP SP2 PC or XP Media Center Edition 2005.
Connect your X-Box 360 to your home network and you can stream your music.

- 9.4 PSP -
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I´ve got so many mails about thisso I must do a section about it.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- 9.4.1 Music -
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
First you need a USB to USB mini cable.
Connect the PSP to the 360 and put the PSP into USB mode (go to the settings
menu, all to the left). The 360 shall now be able to see it.
Go to Media on the Dashboard, and choose music.
Select Portable Device, and you are on the PSP. Now you must go to the right

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- 9.5 Movies -
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sorry guys, this is in next update >_>
But I can tell that you need a Windows Media Center 2005-based PC to stream
movies to your 360, and it seems to only support:
Video:
Windows Media Video (WMV) 7, WMV 8, and WMV 9.
Maximum resolution of 1920x1080 (1080p).
Windows Media Audio Standard or Windows Media Audio Pro audio.
WMV content may be Windows Media DRM-protected.
MPEG-1 with MPEG-1 layer I or II audio.
MPEG-2.
Maximum resolution of 1920x1080 (1080i).
AC-3 or MPEG-1 layer I or II audio.
WMV Image 1 (Photo Story 1 & 2), and WMV Image 2 (Photo Story 3).
Audio:
Windows Media Audio (WMA) 7 through WMA 9.
WMA Standard content may be Windows Media DRM-protected.
WMA Professional.
WMA Professional content may be Windows Media DRM-protected.
WMA Lossless.
Windows Media DRM protected WMA Lossless is not supported.
MP3.
Other formats that have a DirectShow decoder installed on the host computer
that outputs pulse code modulation (PCM) audio.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- 9.6 Dashboard Themes -
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Press the Guide button, Personal Settings, then Themes.
So easy is it to change Dashboard Themes o_O
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- 9.7 Extern harddrive -
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you take a harddrive, format it in FAT32, use it in a USB 2 ATA adapter and
inserts it into your X-Box 360 USB drive, you can stream music and photos from
the harddrive.
You can NOT save files on it, since USB is read only.
You can NOT watch movies from it.
Think of it as a big MP3 player for your own music in your 360 game whenever
you want.
===============================================================================
= 10. Gaming Achievements =
===============================================================================
When you play your games, you can earn Gaming Achievements (I think all 360
games have those). I will later include all achievements here.
Activision did this back in 1982 on the Atari 2600. If you took a photograph
on the TV with a topscore and sent it in, you got a nice cloth badge.
Most games can give you around 1000 points, and most arcade games can give you
around 200 points. And no points for demo versions ;)
I will list them this way:
NAME OF GAME - Total Gamescore - Total Achievements
Achievement Name
Description (most time you can see it by the Achievement Name)
The GameScore
The Picture
I know that the order can seem strange on some games, I´ll fix it later when
I have most Achievements done.
Easiest game to get points in: NBA 2K6.
Lowest score: 5 G, in most Arcade games.
0 G, in Quake 2.
Highest Score: 400 G, in Madden NFL 06.
Most Gaming Achievements: 50. Perfect Dark Zero, Condemned and Quake 4.
And the only for Japan game, Tetris: The Grandmaster Ace.
Fewest Gaming Achievements: 5. NBA 2K6 and NHL 2K6.
