This is a handy little youtube clip, with a guy discussing the merits of
xbox versus the playstation.
Very informative.

Does anyone know how to get your downloaded movie torrent files to play on your Xbox 360 console?

Can't you just burn them to a dvd and play them on the xbox? I presume these DVD files are .iso or some other image file type. You need a DVD burning program like nero, select burn image to disc and stick in the DVD (you may need dual layer dvds for some movies and hence a dual layer dvd burner - most modern dvd writers are dual layer compatible.)

Now getting downloaded torrent xbox games to run is a totally different story!

Guys is it possible to surf the net and download items with the xbox? 
Do you need to sign up to a subscription or anything? 
Is it wireless? 

Thanks in advance!!

I have a computer question of a different sort. I am currently trying to up load a youtube video which lasts 12 minutes, the problem is I think you can only use 10 minutes of video time before starting into a new one. Is there anyway around this where I can just up load the 12 minute's without needing to go into a second video?

Will this work Gnevin if i download?  I have never hooked the XBOX up to XBL and keep getting an error xbox 360 status code 51-c00df236.  i take it i need the latest updates from MS for this to work but if i download this tversity should this bypass this requirement?

Yes that error code means it can't understand th  format the file is in. tversity gets around all that .

No way around that I'm afraid apart for using some other site.

I just updated about two weeks ago.

51-c00df236  is the error message requiring a codec update.  just update and you are then able to play downloaded movies , music etc.  Therefore eliminating the need for tversity. ( i think !)

Naw MS aren't supporting the majority of formats . While the coverage has improved its still not universal and their is nothing worse than sitting down to watch some tv and finding out it refuse's to play.

OK im now able to play my downloaded movies on my xbox through a USB pen but my question is how do i get them the movie off the USB and copy into onto the hard drive of the XBox so i can watch it without having to put the media onto the USB every time i want to watch?

Gnevins probably your best bet for advice on that one. You can stream directly from your pc to xbox apparently ( ive never done it ). I have an external hard dive and just plug it in.  Anything burned to disc plays as well. Normally 5-6 movies per disc

The xbox i have is the basic arcade version. Mrs bensars got it when she upgraded her mobile so there is very little memory.  DOnt have it on now but should be straight forward enough when you go into memory and select the pendrive ( i would have thought)
