Usb Card Reader
« on: December 25, 2003, 09:03:00 PM »
I just soft modded an xbox for my parents for Christmas for use strictly as a music jukebox/dvd player, and I was thinking that it would be great if I could use a USB Card Reader in conjunction with the usb cable to xbox I have seen on the Lik-Sang website so that my mom could pop in a secure digital card from her digital camera and view a slideshow.  It would be ten times easier than setting up a share (as I will generally not be around to help).  Any thoughts would be great.

Well you can hook up external USB Massstorage Devices to the xbox controler port. But the problem is that the xbox will think that it is a memcard and format it in FATX the second you plug it in.

Even if you're already in a program like xbox media player? I was under the impression that this auto format was only under the normal dashboard.  If it does occur at any time...what module makes this go? Any way to work on disabling it
