Vibration support for the controllers!!!

How cool would it be have it do the rumbles on the low khz of music and movies? Just stick each controller under a lounge cushion!

hahhaha - that'd be sweet!

I would also like to see a cd -> mp3 ripper to rip my new cd's right on the xbox.

What do I want to xbmp?

Well, I read other posts and all they want is eye candy.. I want something more substantial..

I don`t care about adding neat graphics and stuff like that (You can add those once the basic product is complete).. I`d like to see xbmp develop into the area of being able to read other file types.. I`d want it to read normal AVI`s and MPeg`s.. And others.. But AVI and MPEG would be essential.

And.. Well.. This is a stretch.. But if the xbox is connected to a router that has the internet.. It can technically access the internet right?.. Well, make XBMP update itself automatically... Using random sites or something.. Hell, use kazaa (P2P) to update it if you are worried about them tracking down download sites.. .

As for music.. (If the auto update internet thing is working).. Then it shouldn`t be a problem to let us play .PLS FILES (WINAMP RADIO).. http://www.shoutcast.com/waradio.phtml

Anyway.. Those are my suggestions. Thanks for listening.

would it be realistic to ask for support for playing media off memory cards. This isnt as silly as it sounds. Its very easy to add a USB to IDE convertor and stick a massive drive on there for holing movies/music. this would leave the other drive free for launching apps from etc

Umm not true I'm afraid.

This would actually be very difficult. Due to it requiring full USB driver support.

It's easy enough to code apps like xbmp and such for the xbox. But coding a full set of USB drivers would be far from an easy task.

Believe me this has been discussed many times before on numerous forums. Do a search on xboxhacker and the official xbmp forums if you want all the technical reasons as to why it won't happen.

Ok.. I got it working grat with relax...

It reads avi's.. But only small ones. I have one avi file that's 700 megs and xbmp can't play it..!!

I'd like xbmp to be able to cache bigger files.......

Overall though, xbmp is great, essential piece of my home entertainment center already.

cheers

* A nice menu option to play a VCD rather than browsing to the MUSIC01.DAT file.
* Automatic setting up and downloading of TV guide channels.

I would like for XBOX media player to play cdg files, which are karaoke files. It would be a great addon
