Well, i dont have a Question box, but if you want I can copy/paste my code for launching games by pressing X. Also, it does not freeze if no disk is in the xbox.

Right now I have X to change the random song... I might use yours untill someone posts on how to do this (I will just use the left thumbstick instead), but I really have my heart set on the question box... it would be nice if a question box could pop up when it recognizes discs as well as when you press left thumbstick. Anyone know this off hand? Anyone else interested in this as much as I am? Please post here if this is something you would want and maybe someone will be generous enough to take the time to figure it out (I cant seem to crack it). Im such a chump... begging for code;p

CODE

else if (discType == "Video")
{
theLauncherLevel.GoTo();
}

else if (discType == "Title")
{
theLauncherLevel.GoTo();
}

and change it to:

CODE

else if (discType == "Video")
{
    if (AutoLaunchDVD == "True")
    {
    launch("xboxdash.xbe", "\Device\Harddisk0\Partition2");
    }

else if (AutoLaunchDVD == "false")
    {
    return;
    }
}

else if (discType == "Title")
{
    if (AutoLaunchGame == "True")
    {
    theLauncherLevel.GoTo();
    }

else if (AutoLaunchGame == "false")
    {
    return;
    }
   }

Then look for this:

CODE

var use5ButtonMainMenu;
var autoDvdx2;
var dvdx2path;

and place 2 things under it, so it will look like this:

CODE

var use5ButtonMainMenu;
var autoDvdx2;
var dvdx2path;
var AutoLaunchDVD;
var AutoLaunchGame;

Next, find this:

CODE

function OnYDown()
{
TellUser(" DASHBOARD CONTROLSn(A) = Selectn(X) = Start Gamen(Black) = Shutdownn(White) = Reboot", "");
}

and below it, put this:

CODE

After, save the default.xap and insert it. Then, open up the default.xip/config.xap

Look for this:

CODE

XBMPpath = "\Device\Harddisk0\Partition1\utilities\DVD-X2\"; // Set path to Xbox Media Player

and place these 2 under it:

CODE

AutoLaunchDVD = "Fales"; // Set auto launching movies to true/false
AutoLaunchGame = "False"; // Set auto launching games to true/false

save, insert. This will stop it from freezing when pressing X, and allow you to set auto launch on/off through the config.xap.

rjsachse · « **Reply #11 on:** November 05, 2003, 02:58:00 PM »

CODE

powerofffunctiontext = "Power off Xbox ?";

and under that put

CODE

playgametext = "Play Xbox Game ?";
playdvdtext = "Play DVD Movie ?";
playaudiotext = "Play Audio CD ?";
playunknowntext = "Play Unknow Disc Type ?";

Now open Default.xip --> Default.xap
and look for this

CODE

function OnDiscInserted()

and then inser this all the way to the

CODE

DEF theTranslator Translator

and over write it aswell (makes It easy to do it that way)

CODE

and now it ask you to play the cd or not but still can not get the launch on a push of a button any help would be great enjoy
