Modifying Mce Extender Htm Pages To View On 360
« on: November 27, 2005, 03:16:00 PM »
What about just trying to get broswing working? Perhaps getting the X360 to load into somewhat of a proxy page and then browse with that? Just an idea I doubt it works, maybe someone more knowledgable can correct me.

Thanks!

But as far as like actually going to forums.xbox-scene.com and posting anything from your xbox isnt here yet smile.gif but this is good for grabing the news page before powering up to play some Quake 4 Thanks for the find man!

Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't the Xbox a dumb terminal when viewing such things via MCE, such as the news item a few days back? In that case, ActiveX would be nifty for a file manager for your computer, but not the Xbox.

have you tried creating a html page that auto loads another file, such as an exe or even PPC file, and see what the xbox tries to do when it encounters that file?

Some Media Center Power tools will run when put under the "other programs" list

how about a html file that loads porn, lots and lots of por. no not really althou nice ide, if the html file is scripted in such a way that it will automatically copy files when accessed what does this do, im thinking maybe things like a ftp server or something.

QUOTE
The Media Center SDK is designed to help developers create applications and software components that take advantage of features provided by Windows XP Media Center Edition.
The Media Center SDK enables developers to:

      •Create Media Center hosted HTML applications.

      •Create Media Center hosted add-ins using managed code.

      •Direct Media Center to schedule the recording of TV programs from hosted HTML applications, add-ins, and external Windows applications.

      •Create device drivers and other software components that receive status information about the state of Media Center.

      •Create an input method editor (IME) module that adds a localized version of the on-screen keyboard, keypad, and input method editor to Media Center.



so those of you who have it get cracking... let's see what XS can come up with...

Can anyone think of a way to proxy these?  Maybe portal style like the psp to get out of the box?
