After I bought my 160 gig HDD, I patched my BIOS with LBA48 using XBtool.  While patching it, I took away tha green generator intro video, changed tha colors, and took away tha "TM" logo.  Now, it's just plain and boring.  I boot up to an "X."  (Thrilling ain't it?)  Is there anyway to replace tha green generator intro with another video?  That'd be tight.

Thanks y'all.

as of this moment, no. from the posts i have read, the intro is composed almost entirely of code (very short code mind you) and that it's stored in the MCPX (?).

I have seen different xbox vidoes before. once on a non modded xbox i hit XBL from the dash and put in halo at the same time. the xbox screen went blank and then played what looked like to me a different xbox intro. it was a short cool video that ended with the xbox letter blowing up and swirling. then it when to a screen saying this xbox needs to be fixed or something like that.

There used to be a video of what i saw on allxboxskins.com but there not up anymore. i have the video saved if anyone really wants to see it.

I think that the video for the intro is stored on the mother board with 2 others. If it was in the bios i think the bios would need to be bigger than 256kb, and i dont think its on the hard drive either because it still comes up even if the harddrive is not in.

as none of you guys seem to read xbox-scene news, I'll enlighten you: Complex have showed off a working, edited xbox-startup movie, however this is still private info/tools/hacking whatever. As of now there is no way to change you bootup-ani, unless you figure it out yourself.

Yup, it's stored in the BIOS - a search in the development forum turned up this result:
Discussion on Modifying Intro

Basically, it's not a video, but is rendered real-time.  It's stored in a series of vertices, hence it's VERY small and compact, but that also makes it crazy to change.

No, it isn't stored in the MCPX.

i'll take your word for it  wink.gif  this area is kind of sketchy to me, i never seen people devote much interest to this.  

complex did release screenshots of an edited one but it seems that interest kinda died out about the subject matter not too long afterwards...

I've played around with it a bit. I had a test build of xbtool which randomly nudged the vertices of the X around (I called it wrecked X becaue it made the X look like it had been abused) and I changed one of the colors in the blob animation, but then I got involved in something else and never got back to it.
