Description: Drive Eplorer that works on USB storage devices formatted by the Xbox 360
Port of my old multiplatform fatx driver, now it has a gui.
It works!
http://halo.gruntmod...elease_Gui_.rar : has built in updater, will update upon launch ( thanks to gruntmods for server )
Linux/OSX(currently broken due to obfuscation, will fix later)
You need to install mono to use this on those systems( i will not provide help on installing mono)
http://www.mono-project.com/Main_Page
To run: Open a terminal, type "mono /path/to/xtaf.exe" without the quotes
Currently, user v33 with linux/OSX, as for now linux/windows version are merged
THIS IS BETA SOFTWARE: Expect bugs
For support, and to post bugs, visit http://darkjump.co.cc/forums
V33: Fixed many issues, it now should handle cache partitions correctly, pulled out of beta for now.
....
Update, v35, fixes hdd support
Update, v36, I made the mistake of posting on se7ensins, got flamed, new option for one of their idiots.
~~~~
etcetc
~~~~
V42: hdd support should be stable along with large usb devices, if your hdd does not load then try unchecking the load method option in options
Full changelog available through link inside application.

Edit: Upon opening it in Vista, I get the "fatx.exe has stopped working" error. I can try it on my desktop with xp on it.
Edit 2: I just redownloaded it. It will open, but no matter what command I type in, It will give me the error in the first edit.

Listing directories good, however when I extract the content the resulting file is not correct. And it is smaller in size than what is expected.

great, a bug
I have had this happen to 1 other person I was working with, but i can never seem to replicate it
However, the Bad Command? actually means that something threw an exception

Nothing too new i expect.
Because of the format I don't expect it would be too hard to enumerate the blocks and build a folder/file list on the fly since everything is nulled to 16kb blocks.

Post by: gabe_k on April 07, 2010, 07:13:00 AM
well im no expert on anything to be honest but has anybody else seen the test strings in the files i only copied a gamer profile ove and decided toi have a look at what it created on the usb stick so when i was hex editing the files it made i found all driver file names (ie PID_xxxx&VIDxxxx) i checked what it was for online and it was for a HP Modem was wondering what the significance of this is or wether it was left overs of what i had on the usb stick before i formatted it cus if it isnt wiping the previous files from the usb stick coulnt this cause problems with readers and such
as i said i aint no expert was just wondering why they where there
Sounds like stuff that was left over on your USB drive combined with incorrect extraction.

Correct. When the xbox initializes the drives it does a "quick format" basically. Any data you had on the drive previously will still be there, w/o any allocation tables. the xbox writes out an allocation table on the fly to make it quick so any data that was previously there will show up in the xbox data files. It's irrelevant that it's there because the xbox only recognizes files in it's allocation tables but it can make things difficult when hex editing.
If your interested in doing comparison work or grabbing files I suggest doing a low level format of the stick in windows prior to initializing it on the xbox. Gives yo ua nice clean surface to start with.

I don't think so. You might still need to sign them in order to make the xbox accept them.
You do need to resign them in order for them to be playable under your profile, but there are apps out there that will do this for you.

This might be a newb question but does this mean that we can now download gamesaves off the internet, transfer them to a flash drive and use them to play games on the 360?
This is only possible if we figure out how to inject files into the "files" the 360 creates on USB storage devices, which most likely won't be that difficult once extraction is smoothed out?

That is what this program does. It has an inject option. I imagine signing them would be the issue. No idea how that works. Of course, I'm a n00b when it comes to such things, so maybe the method I used was not truly copying the files back over correctly.

Like I said in my previous post, signing is not the issue (game saves) as there are programs that do this for you. I've been waiting for an app like this to come out since this feature was announced as I accidentally deleted all my game saves and have a couple I need to resign under my Live profile.

I've been curious, and reflected the DLL and the exe
, I have only one remark, there is only unix drives specs.As I have access to windows with VS 2005 (at work), I may try to make this part more flexible for win users.
I propose to create resource file, to make it multilingual (I can read/write/speak English, but I have some friends for whom English is like Chinese
). I could translate it in French.

Got interesting results, data0002 looks like it has everything i have (profile/saves and maybe themes no idea) duplicated in there, and i just made a partition inside the xbox 360, it has 0MB in it, but in fact all my saves althougth i didint copied them to the pen, they are duplicated in the pen, humm i can't figure is why M$ duplicates all our data and stays invisible for the xbox 360...
Data0001 doesnt look much important to me, it looks like it has only info of what type of partition u made inside the xbox360. Data0000 looks like it may be the one that has all the tests and info about the pen drive, because u probably can't use ppls data files in ur pen, although i didnt tested that yet, but i have one corsair 8gb pen that can't be used in the xbox360, and i dont think that if i move my data files from the other pen to my corsair it will load any good...
After comparing data0001 files(one with nothing inside the pen, one with a save in it), it just changed a very few bytes to mean anything, i hex edited data0001, and the save got danified, but i was still able to move it to the hdd and it got fixed, so i dont think data0001 is important...
Data0002+3+4+5... are the actual virtual hdd(and has all ur data duplicated from ur hdd even if u didint copied nothing to the pen...). But to discover bugs in the system and maybe let us hack the xbox360, data0000 looks like it's the one, and probably is encrypted...
Anyway i manually extracted my save from NFS trough usb, and compared to my actual save i have inside the hdd, both had a lot of different bytes, but still i saved the one inside the pen just like the real save i have in the hdd, then i sent it to my hdd over the pc, and it loads just fine, didint even needed to rehash it, the problem is the bloody hell save checksum is still there
(I was hoping since they have different data moving to the usb may remove the save checksum, but no it doesnt crapt on that)So i can confirm M$ is so fckin stupid and didint encrypted, our data in the usb
ps: also xbox partition change the sectors of the pen it adds a "xbox360" and a few more bytes to the pen partition...
Keep Cool!

As other users said before, MS probably didn't encrypt the files because this would only be more complicated and they know some hackers were gonna hack it anyway. I don't see how this is stupid, why aren't you just happy about it? If they had encrypted it people would be complaining about why they encrypted it.
Also, all of this was known before and you can easily access the files on the device using the tool this thread is about. It may not be perfect, but I guess that in short time it will be easily usable for normal people.

I dont think no one knows exactly how the data files treat the files u copy from the hdd to the pen, in time and with a lot of comparing somoene will unlock all it's secrets...
About the encryption, well i still think M$ is stupid, i was almost sure we copuld use the pen but couldnt use it in the pc to hack the saves, because i thought M$ would encrypt the data inside the pen, but well tank god they'r stupid and didint encrypted it, in no time at all we won't need to ever remove the hdd from the 360 to connect on our pc's to hack files mehehe....

My USB stick is a 1GB type.
OK I opened the device. Went into 0.{dir}Content. Then 0.{dir}00000000000. Then 1.{dir}434340E1. Then 0.{dir}003000. And injected the file there. In this case the file was 4D5388BB033F0001 A Mass Effect theme.
Also this is on a unmodded in anyway system.

Yep, i have seen that, but i also hex edited data0001, the content i have inside got danified, but still uploading to the hdd fixed the problem, so data0001 can be all fu**** and it will still copy the files, so i dont care much about it, to add or extract things for me i only need the data0002...
But yeah for finding a bug data 0000 and data 0001 looks good.
Hey and about data0000 what did u found bout it? i think it's there where xbox saves all the pen's info and tests, and maybe we could find some bug there, like to make any pen to work on the 360...
I have one of the latest CORSAIR pen that is not compatible can u believe this SHIT??
Maybe if somoene can hack the files, maybe we could make any pen to become a memmory card pen... and maybe that's the secret inside the data0000 file.
Also maybe if i change the sectors of my corsair pen to make it look like it is a Kingston, maybe then xbox will accept it humm, If i have time i think maybe if i change the pen's firmware name to other compatible should trick the 360...

Just one hint, u can have ur pen with 0mb (inside xbox360), but dont give ur data files to me or i may get all the saves/profile and probably a few more items of ur hdd which arent even in the pen (i mean they are there but hidden)...
ps: and not even this fatx explorer can extract that, but manually u can SEE EVERYTHING u think u dont have inside it...
ps2: basically if u made a pen, and even if u have only like 1 save or one game inside it, even if u somehow erase the hdd and u loose all the data, i can still recover any data u had of the profile that made the pen...
ps3: i still cant figure out is WHY M$ duplicated all our data? kinda hummm, maybe its for comparing the saves u really have to the fake ones and to see if u hex edited them and probably to make it faster to ban live accounts of cheaters, that's what i think...
ps4: also if u extract one of those hidden saves and compare to the real one u have inside ur hdd, they will have a few changes in the data, but both load just fine.

Nope, ur wrong u cant use any pen, i have a Corsair one of the latest models and it gives a red error when configuring inside the xbox 360, it says something like not supported and to go see the list of supported pens...
oh maybe ur talking about ur program
, sry i was talking about 360 system not ur app And i have a old and crapt kingston pen here (2gb) which work in the 360, but gives that performance error, but it works, my corsair doesn't Grrr...
So im thinking probably they didn't listed the pen because it's one of the latest corsair models, but im thinking if i change the pen's firmware to the name of my other kingstone, it may trick 360 system and let me use the pen... (the problem is i don't have any other pen, i would like to have 3 pens to compare both the data of them with nothing inside and see which offset has the info of the pen and probably the speed tests, since M$ say it tests the pen speed and etc. It will offcourse save that information inside the pen somewhere...)
Hey and thanks for the info about data0000, so that means all we want is the data0001 file humm, i will do lot more of comparing to see whats goin on there.
And u surely know what i was talking about data0002 right?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
this is the pen i have that it doesnt work:
I mean come on how can this latest model of corsair pen's not be supported on the 360??? M$ hello!!! CORSAIR is the best RAM producer on the entire galaxy (or maybe just in our solar system
, but whateva)..., i know it's not the Voyager GTR which is faster than the speed of sound, but hey my Corsair pen is lot faster than my old kingston crapt which i bought for like 3$ and my corsair doesnt work, well fu** it.Keep Cool

One problem: for all Data00** files above Data0009, it created 0-byte files with extra zeroes, i.e. Data00010, Data00011, etc. next to the existing Data0010, Data0011, etc. I'm not sure if the program is trying to read from these files or what - I can't exactly test since I'm not sure which files are in those.
Other than that it's great!

Perfect Dark E3 Premium Theme: 434307D4\00030000\522D6518FA57ED6E8E0077C957A70EE47DB9EAB758
Resident Evil 5 Premium Theme: 434307D4\00030000\494D884300000001
When I moved them the software created
CODE
[1.] 434307D4\[1.] 00030000\[1.] 522D6518FA57ED6E8E0077C957A70EE47DB9EAB758

[1.] 434307D4\[2.] 00030000\
[2.] 434307D4\
I deleted all other folders, except the one where all the theme files went too, they worked without any problems.
3. I also tried copying arcade Trials and doing yaris hex swap on them, however they were detected as corrupted files on the console
4. I tried to copy full hexic hd to pendrive to play with it. but xbox refused to copy that file from hdd. It's the full version that was included on consoles hdd when I bought it, no idea how it works for full arcades downloaded online to hdd.
edit: anyone tried playing around with iso's ? xbox1 games ? i have old iextreme which unfortunately would force me to remake original xbox games to dual layer images... i wonder if there's a way to add them in through pendrive

e00000ef48289462 would be different as it's created by the game you insert on pen to open directory, in my case it was afro samurai, just do 1 and insert saves inside so in the x360 is going to show :
Afro Samurai and inside all saves for all games that you inject.....

Are they detected as full games or trials ? Did you had them bought on that console or are they from a different one ?

Just had a brilliant idea .Why dont we edit the optional media update to work with any console without going on to xbox live.
yeah, add mkv support and we in bizz haha
Post by: Giygas.k on April 09, 2010, 01:10:00 AM
they show up as trial and if I use Yaris-Swap they show up as corrupted data.
I've downloaded them from the internet.
but my guess is, now that that we can transfer XBLA via the usb someone will come up with a patch for them to work on the newest firmware without the need to use a jtagged xbox.
ps. I am messing with the files to see if I can change something like the license the console needs to run dlcs, but I don't know if I will get somewhere
ps2. for some reason the GUI crashes when I try to inject a big file like Shadow Complex.

On the other hand i tried two dlc's for Mass Effect 2
1. Preorder pack. Console detected them without any problems, and copied to hard drive. However game displayed error in menu saying they are corrupt and asked to redownload them.
2. Alternate Appearance Pack 1 DLC - this one was detected as corrupt by console...
guess it was moded for jtag console or smth.
k I'm getting a bit tired, gonna stop for today.
edit: btw i tried to copy patches but it seems like i failed, maybe we need acces to system cache ? dunno. I was too tired to look into that.
In the end I'm still just a casual noob playing around with basic stuff.

opening file E00004D148289462 in content with txt editor shows account data, program used to draw, printer extension,and also all achievement data.
will try changing txt and see if injecting will cause achievement names to change on non jtagged x360.
LOL?
what are u trying to discover? we discover what ur trying to discover like 3 years ago or more...
U can hack achievments, it's not a secret, u can change their name, u can also add games you even never played or have, u can take a little "file" which is encrypted inside the profile and decrypt it and change live status and other shits...
Basically u can do almost anything, but as soon as u mod ur profile, just wait for M$ to suspend/ban that account, or simply to nothing happen at all...
ps: Some ppl try things in the pen and think it was impossible before
, Since a long time we use our hdd's connected to the pc, and everything u guys think that discover that u can do only after this update, we used to do that years a go connecting the hdd to the pc...QUOTE(yolarrydabomb @ Apr 9 2010, 04:17 AM)
so in other words...I no longer need to take my hard drive out of its case to cheat?
Probably
, anyway why the heck u keep taking ur hdd out? i bought the X-sata for like 6$, and i only connect the hdd even easier than connecting to the 360 and i dont have to shutdown the pc, my pc doesnt stuck, which sadly some pc's stuck after conecting a sata hdd while power is ON...But pen usb is not always 100% good, we will still need to use the hdd connected to the pc for a few things, for example if u wanna hack some "invisible" content u have inside the hdd in the 3rd partition inside the 0000000000... folder, xbox 360 doesnt read that and u cant copy for the pen, so u will still need to connect the hdd to the pc...
And also i cant move my custom hexed themes from the hdd to the pen...
QUOTE(Frogman7 @ Apr 9 2010, 08:10 PM)
Yaris-swap is intended for people who want to transfer legally purchased xbox live content from a live connected 360 to a jtagged system. Yaris-swap breaks the signature therefore you need a 360 that can run unsigned code to read it and currently jtagged systems cannot read 360 formatted usb drives. Also discussion of downloading pirated DLC is not accepted in this forum as a word of warning.
U said it all, i would thank you if we had that in this forum
PPL now think they can do everything from the usb, we could already do anything they can do with the usb, for a long time with explorer360 and the hdd...
I would say if yaris swap doesnt work if we put directly in the hdd, why would it work in the pen...
Unless someone find a bug in the usb that lets us inject anything that will access the 360, but i dont think so, the firmware must really block everything of what the pen can access in the 360...
And just to let everyone know, for now there is no way u can get all the DLC and premium shits in ur 360, they have a digital signature and they are blocked to somoenes profile or console or profile and console, and if ur going to resign it to ur console u will broke the live digital signature, and well good luck fixing that, till now no one could even scratch the live signature, and i dont think anyone will get the live keys any time soon...
U can is put only a few limited number of DLC, because there are ones which arent blocked to the profile/console...
Don't mix live containers with a normal container created offline bu the 360, saves can be modified because they are normal containers, they aren't live containers...
Also there are some few live things that can be resigned by converting from a live container to a normal container, but still for now ppl can only convert a few little things like a theme, a gamer picture....

I think we've done all that can be done..themes, pics, saves.
crossing fingers for some one to make some sort of paging fault, that'll allow a loader to boot into linux pen drive, but won't hold my breath as jtags are the priority, and i blame myself for updating but a little help guys for the rest of us...
and Guily6669: we know about all the stuff you are talking about, but since we're screwed then we'll keep on trying new stuff, you know... and great progress has been made, so why the put-down, chill not all of us need to nor want to open up our HDs, that's why we're doing it this way.
Post by: Guily6669 on April 09, 2010, 05:22:00 PM
(my english is not that good u know )But hey i dont have to open my HDD, i bought X-sata for like 4$ new from store , and it even comes with a sata and molex power as a pci for ur pc, so u will have a sata and power plug on the back of ur pc and neither u will have to open ur pc neither the 360's hdd...
Also i only paid 4$ for it and see i have a sata and power plug on my pc which my board doesnt have, i have one "Y" power cable, and a Sata cable, and even the hardware to conect 360's hdd and all for only 4$
And sry it wasn't X-sata but taliismoon mini spy or some crap LOL
About the yaris swap, ur getting it corrupted because u modified and broken that live signature, and u would need a live hash block calculator to fix it, and the problem is there ain't one for now
ps: with this u can go faster than any usb pen out there, and also u can use explorer360extreme 2 and i haven't found any bug in it + i can acess the 000000... folder on partition 3 and even copy a 4gb game to the pc a lot fast... also u can acess the part which contains the update of the xbox 1 emulator so u can run xbox 1 emulated games on a banned console...

About the encryption, well i still think M$ is stupid, i was almost sure we copuld use the pen but couldnt use it in the pc to hack the saves, because i thought M$ would encrypt the data inside the pen, but well tank god they'r stupid and didint encrypted it, in no time at all we won't need to ever remove the hdd from the 360 to connect on our pc's to hack files mehehe....
Well you can see the missing encryption from two perspectives: the normal user of the xbox 360 and the user who will abuse it.
The "normal" user will benefit from this feature as he or she can use his or her USB flash drive as a memory unit which is much less expensive. However, as most people would like gamerscore cheating and gamesave cheating to be impossible in xbox live, this is also a thread. I do not want people on my friend's list to be able to use game saves and get 1000 G in one day (as long as they didn't play avatar), I want them to play honest. Thus far I had no bad experiences with cheaters (that means no experiences at all) but maybe that USB update will make people do things they shouldn't do
The user who abuses the feature (editing xbox 360 data on the PC) was probably able to access the HDD way earlier (like you said), but this eliminates the need to buy anything or to open any cases thus making the whole process available to people to whom it used to be to complicated or dangerous.
So it doesn't change too much and even an encryption would only have slowed down the process, nothing more.
That said, I don't think it is bad to access the device on the PC as long as you don't use this for things you shouldn't do (like using pirated content on the device you normally have to pay for). I think it would be useful for backups of saved games (every HDD might break, although it is unlikely).
EDIT: Also about your USB drive, the xbox tests the drive. If it is too slow or loses data, you cannot use it or you will get a warning. If your drive was not usable with the xbox, you should really test it with your PC before you go on and force it to be usable with your xbox. There are some tools out there, you should try one of these before.
If MS did not do this test and someone had bought a fake USB drive off ebay without knowing it this could lead to the loss of data which users would blame on MS. So there is a reason why they test the device and you should be careful.

I agree with u slimshady322, but hey u can't imagine the number of cheaters out there, im in almost all of those "hack forums", and there are hundreds of ppl trading M$ pts and live cards for like a full unlocked game (all the gammerscore and shitz), also there are tons of tuts how to easily do that, but was only for who had the hardware to conect the hdd to the pc, now anyone can do that and it kinda suck...
I hate cheaters too, i hacked my account gamerscore, but only my offline account, my live and unique account i use to play games has only 3900gs in it and i have my 360 for more than a year (dont play much in it)...
I kinda dont like this usb update at all, but hey im so damn happy to have my hdd back, because I tried to uncripple my hdd, i soldered the right resistances and all that stuf and in the end the app couldnt detect my paralell port which has the right drivers installed and is working fine, i even tried all my bios settings and no result, so i shit on that, and now i have my hdd back wooo thank M$ for that, although they didint had any right to ban the hdd which is not a part of the "live".
Also i know how to hack the gamerscore and never to get caught (timestamps, right order, always change the info on the "3 spots ~full gs, all unlocked achievments and all unlocked achievments/gs for that game "). But i never did on my account, although i did to my friends, because like everyone i see they'r interested in be the best and have lot's of gammerscore which suck, i dont care anything about my GS.
Although im afraid i may get a account ban or gamerscore reseted in my account, but thats just because i played a lot more in my banned console, i had 9000gs in my unique profile, i removed the flag from the ban and put it in a not banned console, but i coudlnt login on live it said i had some data bad, so i started all over again.
I restored my account from live with 3000gs in it, and then i played in the banned console, and my saves were almost at the end of the games, and i unlocked only the last achiev. on this account, and i fixed again my profile and this time i could connect on live with it and it updated my account with the achievments i did in the banned console. So im afraid i might get reseted, because i didint unlocked the achiev from the right order, but still i didint cheated, i had 9000gs in my banned console because i earned them.
I only hack my saves to get like money and shit..., and i loved to steal ppl«'s cars back in forza 2 woo old times, i have like 30 awesome paints i stolen from ppl's forza 2

I'm glad i helped. And although we now can use pens, i still recommend u buy something like what i said, it will never be a waste of money, because u can check all the hdd and u will see everything like a real explorer when using 360explorerextreme2, u can see the hdd partitions, and u have all the folders named in there, and it's faster and easier to put something inside, u can acess the 00000... folder and even do a full backup of ur data in ur pc, so u can have 999999Tb of installed games although ur hdd is only 120gb, because u can have the game installed in the pc and if u may want, u can simply move it to ur hdd when u want...
This is how the files look like when conecting ur hdd to the pc and using 360explorer:
Some games saves important data in cache folder...
In the compatibility folder are xbox 1 emulator updates to run xbox 1 games...
Inside content any folder in there with numbers and letters is a profile and the 00000... folder is the 360 console <<profile>>, that's where it goes all the data that doesn't belong to any profile at all, and therefore aren't blocked to any profile and can be used by any profile, but files can still have a console lock in them...
ps: and for 4$ which is what i paid, i even won more, because if i would buy only the external sata connection in a pc store i would pay 4$ only for it...

About the live hash calculator i dont think so, we used to have the best coders working on good things ti fix things, nowadays i dont see any new app released, everyon'es now moving their skills to jtaged consoles, the problem is maybe like only 1% of us have them...
About the talismoon, u should grab urs while u can, u dont lose anything for buying it, also i tested injecting a custom hexed theme in the pen, but the xbox doesnt open it, neither lets me move that files from hdd to usb, neither from usb to hdd, next time i will try the theme locked to a profile and see if the xbox 360 opens it from the pen...

You do realize that the external hdd/pen drive can do the same thing? the 00000000 folder is just downloaded content, and where gamerpics, themes, go. You're talking about stuff that has been publicly known for a minimum of 2 years. The cache and content folders are all on external hdd's seeing as they're classified as Memory Units, and Memory Units can have system updates, cache, etc, just like the official 360 hdd.

That console does not have a HDD so the a cheap usb stick enabled it to play H.264, MKV etc. content.
Since I am not going to use it for hacking, cheating or anything (except for maybe creating my own custom theme using non-gaming related pictures) I don't really have a problem with how it works. However if others do (people that were unaware of the possibilty before) those things on Live and MS has to ban or take away their achievements that would piss me off because it would make the impression that xbox live is not safe or hacked. I know it has been this way before but not to this extent.
I now kinda agree with you that an encryption would be better but only given the circumstances that it is strong enough. A weak or breakable encryption would only suck because well it would be ineffective.
However I don't know if it is even possible to make such an encryption given the time hackers and modders will waste breaking it.
I also know how to do these things (flashing a console's DVD drive, using game saves to cheat or editing your profile on the PC), but I chose not do so because I bought the console to play honest with it. I also respect it when people or a company invest time or money in a product and if I want to play I game I will buy it or rent it. I know this attitude might be the minority on this forums, but I wanted to say this anyway.

Anyway, how it looks about installing Media Update to xbox by USB? I am not able to connect to live (for obvious reason )Sorry if I have awoken false hopes, but MKV is probably not gonna work for your ("for obvious reason
"). That Option Media Update adds support for H.264 playback. That means that the xbox 360 can use its hardware to decode H.264 content.Additionally, the update also enables support for the MP4 and AVI container. Those are the extensions that files with videos in the H.264 codec have. MKV is not supported by the update because it is difficult to really support MKV because the container can hold mostly anything (not only H.264 or DivX, like AVI does). E. g., MKV can also be used for DVD rips which use MPEG2 which the Xbox cannot play so easily.
These rules or restrictions only apply when playing videos from a USB drive or when streaming the files from the PC.
Anyway, enough about that.
Another option (the option I use for MKV (and also MPEG2, AVI, etc.)) is to use a PC with Windows 7. Windows 7 (with the Media Center, included in Home Premium and better) also adds support for H.264, but again not for MKV. But since you can do pretty much with a PC (add codecs etc.), there is an app by DivX that will allow MKV playback (complete with H.264 video and AC3 (Surround Sound) or AAC audio). If you start Windows Media Center on your Xbox (your PC has to be turned on and set up before of course), you can then play pretty much anything, including MKV. I have chosen this option for all of my media, including live and recorded TV because it is really easy to use.
But AFAIK WMC in disabled on banned consoles.
Short Version: I use a PC with Windows 7 Media Center to stream the MKV videos to the Xbox, playing from older OSs or from a USB drive will not work.
EDIT: Yeah well I only have the Optional Media Update on the usb flash drive and it works fine, enabling the playback of said content.

That means that the xbox 360 can use its hardware to decode H.264 content.Additionally, the update also enables support for the MP4 and AVI container. Those are the extensions that files with videos in the H.264 codec have. MKV is not supported by the update because it is difficult to really support MKV because the container can hold mostly anything (not only H.264 or DivX, like AVI does). E. g., MKV can also be used for DVD rips which use MPEG2 which the Xbox cannot play so easily.
These rules or restrictions only apply when playing videos from a USB drive or when streaming the files from the PC.
Anyway, enough about that.
Another option (the option I use for MKV (and also MPEG2, AVI, etc.)) is to use a PC with Windows 7. Windows 7 (with the Media Center, included in Home Premium and better) also adds support for H.264, but again not for MKV. But since you can do pretty much with a PC (add codecs etc.), there is an app by DivX that will allow MKV playback (complete with H.264 video and AC3 (Surround Sound) or AAC audio). If you start Windows Media Center on your Xbox (your PC has to be turned on and set up before of course), you can then play pretty much anything, including MKV. I have chosen this option for all of my media, including live and recorded TV because it is really easy to use.
But AFAIK WMC in disabled on banned consoles.
Short Version: I use a PC with Windows 7 Media Center to stream the MKV videos to the Xbox, playing from older OSs or from a USB drive will not work.
EDIT: Yeah well I only have the Optional Media Update on the usb flash drive and it works fine, enabling the playback of said content.
PS3 Media server is probably the best streaming app there is. It works perfect with the 360. Ignore the name it works for the xbox too. Does not matter what O.S you are using either. Use the transcode folder and you will have no issues if your pc does not suck. I play .mkv files everyday with zero problems. You can have the media on any drive any folder rather then your documents.
The program smashed TVersity.

I haven't tried this PS3 Media Server out but I will be taking a look at it. Is the Xbox 360 hardware used to play the MKV (H.264) files? Because if it is not then it's really worth downloading it for me. Also does the app support TV tuners?

I just got a game save off the internet used modio to change it to my system and loaded it on the usb with xtaf then to my 360 hardrive and it worked on a banned console. Great app.
Now if I could get xbox live game updates onto the usb so that it works on my 360 that would be great as well. I dont know if thats gonna be possible are game updates even stored on these new usb devce support?

You do realize that the external hdd/pen drive can do the same thing? the 00000000 folder is just downloaded content, and where gamerpics, themes, go. You're talking about stuff that has been publicly known for a minimum of 2 years. The cache and content folders are all on external hdd's seeing as they're classified as Memory Units, and Memory Units can have system updates, cache, etc, just like the official 360 hdd.
LOL, i was just explaining that to the user to why i quoted, cause he said he didint known nothing about that...
And no, didin't u realize u can't do everything with the pen?
I wanna see u move my custom hacked themes, which xbox 360 doesnt even let me copy or move from hdd to pen and from pen to hdd, so how would u put that inside ur hdd though the pen?
Also u have something in the folder 000000... of ur hdd which 360 system doesnt even read and there's no way to copy it for the pen, so tell me how will u remove that files other than conecting the hdd to the pc?
Or even try moving ur xbox 360, xbox 1 emulator update from ur hdd to the pen, and lot's of other things like that...
This is one example of my themes:
(all of my themes are made with no apps, i just manually hex edit them, and those are live themes converted to con, so it comes from a premium theme)
ps: my hex edited hacked themes appear as system files. They appear in the theme section of the memory, but their size doesnt count there. so each of my themes have 10MB, but i can have 99999 themes in my 360's hdd and in the themes area of the memory it says 0MB, my themes are counted in the system files tab, and if u open there u wont see any file... + those files i make can't be moved or copied from hdd to pen or pen to hdd (also i tried inside the pen, it said 9MB in the themes area of the pen, but there had no files inside, so i couldnt even load my theme from the pen...)

This may or may not mean much, but I managed to just create a duplicate 'xbox 360' folder in my pc with my forza 3 gamesave in it. From there I transferred a copy to my memory card and hdd, and used a third for the USB drive. 2 of the saves have a couple cars and roughly 3 mil. cr. in them and I managed to keep my original save on the hdd. I'm still wondering if there's a way to edit the credits for a save game in fm3, but for now I'm content with my gamesaves where I can purchase whatever I feel like, but limited to a couple of expensive cars..
Forza 3 saves are protected with a bloody checksum, and maybe if u update the game probably they will encrypt the save just like forza 2...
So u need a forza 3 checksum calculator, and i only know 1 or 2 guys who discover those checksums, the problem is they used to make apps for each game for free, but now they made everything in one app and want us to pay like 50$ for it i think it is "Valhalla", dont know if he changed the name of the project, i think there isint a cracked version of his app for now...

2. Its written in C# and the tried to incorporate tree structure, but he couldnt get it to work with the coding, he says he has somebody who will try to program a gui for it. To move up the directories, you click the " ... " and you go up a directory.

LOL, now that makes more sense. Thanks... the reason I ask is because I recently lost all my saves when I purchased a new 250gb hd from hong kong (cheaper isn't better!) The drive was faulty and I lost all my saves, I have seen saves on maxconsole, but have read they need to be resigned, and there is a program that will do it automatically. Can't seem to find out any more than that... the site is a cluster fuck to navigate.

Well I took a look at it and it might not be bad, but since I have Windows 7 I will stay with Windows Media Center because WMC can do much more than PS3 Media server.
For PCs without Windows 7, PS3 Media Server might be the best choice, but if you have Windows 7 (and are not banned) Windows Media Center is definitly better.

@Gruntparty (Luv the name BTW and the skull setting is long time fave :-) I just downloaded the one linked from XS-News and it seems to update to it's self (maybe your: 'currentversion < UpdateavailibleVersion then update' needs to be more like : 'currentversion >= UpdateavailibleVersion then don't update' I'm sure it's not that simple but you get my drift, I hope :-) That aside, the ability to mount (simultaneously) other drives and/or .bin images from xport or xplorer etc.. Also would be good if it decoded minidex .xml file to show track names and even better if you could extract back to basic .WMA files on ur PC. Like I prolly mentioned earlier some1 needs to port this code to freestyle dash or something similar so XBR3 can make use of these memsticks. Another add-on could be an NXE to GOD function for the memstick (Handy especially for banned consoles)

Well being banned from Xbox Live is not the default situation but anyway. What I meant was that if someone who has Xbox Live (like me) would only connect a USB flash drive to his/her console (having no other storage option) and log in to XBL and then get promted to download the TU this person could take a look at the USB flash drive on his/her PC and try to find the TU. I would do it but although I have 3 consoles I cannot use any of them:
console 1: Japser Arcade
console 2: I don't use that one for video games because I am afraid it might RROD
console 3: RRODs often

that's the point. i don't know where to put them on the usb-drive. The update was released when i was already banned so i could never check it. i have these update files downloaded from a website and saved here on my pc and with xtaf we can see many folders but i don't know where to put these update files...

i would love you if you do it so step by step:
you take one of your xbox 360 which isn't xbox live banned and you need a game which you can update. (or you delete an update of a game)
then take a new usb-drive, format it on your pc and make it on your xbox 360 new so there are no other files on it. then take off the hdd and any MU and download the game update on the usb-drive.
then connect it to your pc and open xtaf and there should be only one folder (or more folders in other folders), till you have a file which should be the game update. (or you extract every folder you can see) this would be so cool!

The thing is that the jasper Arcade has internal memory, so I guess the TU would land there rather than on the usb stick. But I can try this out in a few minutes. Anyway, I have read that you have to be connected to XBL if you want to run a game with a TU because it has to verify that the TU is correct.
The other console is really old so I do not use it for video games, but for watching TV etc only because this does not put so much stress on the hardware ==> no RROD.
The third consol is basically brocken it only works with the towl trick from time to time.
Right now I only have two files on my flash drive, the optional media update and a 132k file I can't identify. I will take a look at it again when I loaded a TU on it, but it might also end up on the internal memory.

As I know, TUs usually placed in partition3 on HDD in folder 'Cache'. Might I wrong. Also there is option to clear system cache on USB-flash. So must be some ways to drop there TUs (title updates known as game updates). Please, man, it could really be useful for offline consoles!

Y dont u use ur consoles?
When i first bought mine i was like you, it would really ROD, because all my friend's 360 Went to repair for 3 times or more...
U know what i did? I bought the console, after i was home i tested it to see if it didin't had problems, and in the same day i already fully disassembled my 360. I attached 2 big fans from the pc and i was using my 360 with open case (only until the material i bought online would come).
The next week i changed the xbox 360 thermal compund, that made me lose almost 10Cº because M$ original compund is one of the worst u can see out there, it's like bubblegum, and i uses ARTIC MX-2 compund, one of the best thermal compunds out there. I used memory block coolers in every chip inside 360 including the "hannah" which is one of the causes of ROD too.
I changed original fans for a talismoon fan, it sucks lot more air and has blue leds, also now i made the fan on the side of the gpu to run at 12V. I also added 2 more fans to the 360 case all at 12v, now my xbox 360 doesnt even touch 47Cº. Also i always wait ~5min. in the dash after playing a game, i never failed on that.
ps: i dont think i will ever have ROD... I'm not really afraid now

I have three consoles and out of these one is rather new (bought Jan 2009 I think). This console is connected to my HDTV and that console is used by me as well as my family daily. It is used for watching TV, playing video games and almost anything else you can do with a 360.
Then I have another TV in my room (not HD). I used to have a 360 set up there, but it is broken now (only works sometimes), so when my friend had a RROD on his console and directly bought a new one Japser Arcade with 512MB for about 130 he sold his old console (that had the RROD) to me.
I opend that console and cleaned it and connected it to my TV in my room. I only use that console for Windows Media Center because the hardest thing it has to do is decode H.264 videos. I do not use that console for video games because it might break and because if I want to play video games I will rather do that on the HDTV.
Even if I did not fear that the console broke, I would not use that console for video games but only for Windows Media Center.
Only if my first console broke and there would be something very important for me to play (like the reach beta), I would use the older, endangered console.
@punkreas: I was connected to Live because I redownloaded the file.

For win7 32bit users with issues try running the program with compatibility for winxp sp2 lol.
It worked for me.
BUT

After Extract content/00000/xxx
How i can transform it Back to the 00001 data format?
Post by: Sakurioru on April 23, 2010, 01:08:00 AM
Will Title Updates work if I place them as DLC-content like Content/0000000000000000/<title_id>/000B0000/...? I think, such scheme usually in XBLAs (saw in Small Arms for example), but what about retail games? I still would like to bring TUs on console with USB-flash.

Like I said in my previous post, signing is not the issue (game saves) as there are programs that do this for you. I've been waiting for an app like this to come out since this feature was announced as I accidentally deleted all my game saves and have a couple I need to resign under my Live profile.
Sorry if it's a sore subject, I also stumbled on a lot of drama regarding some site that doesn't even exist anymore, so I am just a bit too clueless about the whole thing. Hell, I wouldn't even be looking into it if Microsoft hadn't done this USB firmware update.

namely, if I make a 1gb "partition" on 360 and copy the Xbox360 folder to my pc, what happens if i move that folder to a diff usb drive?
will it work or do I need a new save on that one to get the device id then resign/rehash it like with memunits n hdds?
Post by: ProjectSW1 on April 28, 2010, 05:34:00 AM

Does the 360 generate random device IDs when you format in the 360?

I've just tried to copy Xbox360 hidden folder from valid usb stick to another one, which cannot be formated by xbox (it says something about non-validated equipment). Xbox doesn't recognizes it, so it must be device ID locked. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
EDIT: But this tool (xtaf) still can see and work with that "invalid" flash. So I guess with your case you can put data there, extract contents, then get drive valid formated, and then inject contents back to it.
Actually I was looking for a way to get flash drive to work as memory storage, which 360 doesn't wants to format itself, by putting Xbox360 folder there.

Me too! Did you succeed in doing that?
Could please someone "Live enabled" test to apply TU on USB stick and post result, please?
Thanks!

I was looking for a method to put Title Updates on a USB stick when I found this thread and was disappointed that there was no progress, but then I kept searching and found a solution on another forum.
http://darkjump.co.cc/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=100
The only minor downside is that you need the USB stick connected at all times for the Title Updates to work, but it's better than connecting to Xbox Live and flagging my console as banned.

So DarkFox94 do you have acsess to a JTAG box, If not let me know which TU and game ID. Also I'm pretty sure there's a website with a TU database (TUDB) Some TU's may go into different places but it might pay to check that out (They do other JTAG stuff like Avatar items also) Don't ask me to post a link though.. You should be able to find it urself folks...
@Xtaf's creator, Any change in the smartassembly thing?

unless you clicked delete profile and all items the second option when wiping profile then the saves will be there and recovering profile should fix if not bar soem recovery program your probably SOL

However I cannot explore a 16gb image on a usb hdd. It's a dual-partioned hdd I use as xbox storage.
The programm seems to open it forever (over 1hour) with now obvious results.
The reason is I'm desperate to copy over OMU from that usb stick to the usb hdd. No other option - my lan port burnt out.
Thanks goes to Slasherking823 for offering hope.

If you want to run on mac:
Install the mono framework(google mono framework)
Run in terminal "mono /path/to/exe/etc/" (without quotes)
On mac you will need to manually open the drive, eg: /Volumes/My_flash_dirve/Xbox360(should work without Xbox360 now)
Also, it may not run due to the obfuscation, if it doesn't, please say so(testing now on linux)

Anyway,
v37 - linux hdd support
v38 - fixed windows hdd support that got broken by linux support
Also, there might be a regression in error reporting, you might get a hang instead of the fat chain infininte looped warning, either way, next version will have correct corrupt file/folder reporting and it wont crash the whole partition like it has been doing.
Post by: slasherking823 on December 20, 2010, 12:37:00 AM
Anyway, we are up to v42, changelog is linked inside app, in short, large devices now work correctly and HDD support should be full functional.
Sorry about rapid fire version pushing...
