Dvd's in general? It should even without a chip.

If your talking backed up xbox games, then yeah if you have that modchip and youve got evox installed Im sure you can play games on it.

If you mean without the playback kit, then no, or at least to an extent. There is a free xbox dvd player called "dvd-X2", that allows you to play dvd's without it. However, since the legality is questionable, we cannot post on where to obtain this app.

Put that on your xbox, and your controller functions as the remote.

Yeah Ive used that too. Its not that bad of a program. Just gotta remember all the settings of your controller.

You can get it from #xbins. Your not allowed to ask for programs here.


I would recommend adding it to your apps section the let your evox dashboard autodetect it.

I think you can use it as a boot disc as well but I personally havent tried it that way.
