I have a feeling they're going to start laying the smackdown on people with "King Kong Kiosk Demo" in their gamerprofiles.

I would imagine if it shows up on Xbox Live MS will be watching. i would be careful. Would be silly to get banned so early in the "game"

CONFIRMED I deleted the pgr3.wmv demo video and put my own WMV HD video in its place. It booted fine and played the video I added. In other words, you can replace a demo video with a WMV HD video and it'll play fine from disk!

In this example I used the coral reef adventure on MS's website. I'll test other vids in a few.

Already received two PM's asking me for help or where to find the disk. I'm not here to help nor am I going to help you find the disk so don't bother PM'ing me.

Do you need to change the file name to pgr3.wmv or can it stay whateveritis.wmv?

I really like the idea of playing those wmv-hd videos, that was a huge complaint of mine with the 360.

Don't know about you guys, but I'm not even putting this disk into my 360 until we know that nothing can come of it. I ain't wasting my 500 bucks over a dumb demo disk. I'll leave that to you guys.

as long as you are not connected to Live when playing it, I doubt they can do anything

You have to change the name of your WMV HD video you want to play to one that is aleady linked somewhere to the disk. It doesn't matter which demo video you select though.

I had time to kill so I took a .TS HD video I had and tried it with it. When I hit "play video" nothing happens. The button clicks and nothing loads. No errors or anything too, just goes right back to dash.

Outch, yeah, I'd be careful with that. Pull the network cable and your storage device before trying this...

It just seems strange to me that MS would go to such lengths to secure this system, and have a flag that will allow the console to run (albeit SIGNED CODE) from an UNPRESSED disc. Seems like a HUGE hole in their security system... What were they thinking here? I was surprised as hell when I found out you could download and burn a disc with the updates required for backward compatability.

It sounds like the HD-WMV is, right now, the most promising thing comming out of this, but in the right hands, lets hope this turns into something a bit bigger.

I would like some clairification... the xex itself is signed code by MS, but there is a flag INSIDE the xex that allows it to run off a burnt disc? So, if you change the flag inside the xex, the checksum (or whatever security is there) causes the signature of that xex to no be longer valid, causing the executable not to run? Is that correct?

-Duck!

shit i dunno about you but mine doesnt say king kong kiosk demo..it just says king kong...and it lists all the game achievments, just like the retail king kong....uhh..i dunno where you guys got the kiosk demo part from...but i doubt they'd be able to tell the difference between the two when looking at your profile..so just dont be online with it..thats all..i guess i screwed up so far..but i'm sure its all good at the moment..i just wont do it again

ok..i may be wrong...

okies I tried replacing the kameo demo with the full auto demo to see if it would work I renamed fullauto.xex to default.xex and placed it in the kameo folder when I try to run it says disc is dirty. lol gonna try it another way but I doubt this will work because the fullauto.xex probably has it's media check flags in place. oh well just have to wait for oxm.

I believe it does. I extracted the Full Auto demo from the OXM disc to my hard drive in the usual way and tried twice to burn a working copy... once as an ISO and once as a Data DVD. It started both times but said it was a dirty disc..... But, you can see on the DVD Drive Status bar that it says "Play Game"...... Hmmmm.. I wonder where that media flag is.....

Now I haven't been able to locate this disk yet but instead of renaming the xex isn't there a file that points to the file name of the xex. Personally I think you would have better luck changing that then the xex name.

anyone know if the themes that can be downloaded onto a memory card are on this disk, or did all the hard drives come preloaded. It would be sweet if I could get the theme to match my hot rod faceplate without having to buy a $40 memory card!
