If you look at the diagram again its the 2 links that connect pins to pins. There are only 2 links. Make sure you have those correct or the Xbox won't detect it. If you are PAL then 100% that is the reason. Always switch to NTSC if you are PAL. It will play PAL discs depending but they will mostly not support 480p or 720p. Some will, a lot won't. You are better to have NTSC rips to be honest. Some PAL discs are fussy and you will actually have to switch back to PAL to play them, or use auto region switching in xbmc4gamers. Even at that some will only play with the PAL region switched. I have a full PAL set of physical discs and have played many. You can switch easily. The enigmah app is probably the easiest

Also, don't bother enabling 1080i, there is pretty much no point. Its a ram hog and there are next to no games that utilise it. 480p and 720p are all you really need.

I would check again the links that enable the HD (what makes the Xbox detect that you have a HD cable). Also you need to be in NTSC to enable HD resolutions. If you are PAL then you need to be modded and switch the Xbox to NTSC with the enigmah app or NK Patcher advanced settings with Rocky5s extras disc. PAL consoles don't allow HD out of the box. Thats the only 2 things it can be, the links or you are PAL

FTP off the xbmc.log and old xbmc.log when the script fails and you will see at the end the reason why. Or else it is the updater log. There should be a folder in UDATA also that has the logs. It's called 'Rocky5 needs these logs or something like that' Can you check these logs and add specifics like what version you are on and how you are updating. If you are using the downloader or if you are using the extras disc and what version of the xtras disc

Use the patched Ind bios from the extras disc. Then the Dashloader customiser application has a toggle to unmount the iso on in game reset.

We are in the process of remaking all of the videos and screenshots and they will be available in the future, at the moment no but if you find some older already available ones and you can add them to your resources folder if you like and then they will be available for playback on the synopsis menu. The new videos will still take a little more time

Cheers, great diagram. Should clear up some confusion. I also have to add details here from Tony Kuberka regarding sound options, toslink etc. I will try do that soon. I'll add into the tutorial and might just add that diagram in there too at that stage

The website freaked out there and started quoting things that are nothing to do with this also and I can't delete the quotes so ignore that

Your games should be in F/Games and G/Games. So F/Games/Halo/default.xbe. So don't put nested folders into the Games folder if that's what you have done? So in the games folder I am assuming you put another folder called R-Z for example?

You won't need to pay someone for this but always nice to donate to Rocky5, the xbmc4gamers creator on his GitHub. Don't worry anyway, it is very fixable. First at the bottom of the screen does it have a button prompt to log out. Essentially when you make a new profile you are in a 'manage profiles' profile and you have to log out of it and back in to your new one you created. If this works go to skin settings and enable auto login so this doesn't happen again. You can actually take xbmc4gamers out of edit mode so your kid can't mess anything, the person who sold you the Xbox should be able to support that and to be honest if they knew it was for a 6 year old I would have been giving that option to you on sale. It's a hidden menu with a button combo, it's on the GitHub. First you need to try log out of the manage profiles profile. Worst case scenario you will just need to reinstall xbmc4gamers but i think you just need to log out

You need to update to the test build on the Downloader menu. The 'stable' is no longer supported and the test will be the only version soon when Rocky5 gets time to finish up some things. Search the Ogxbox Facebook group for the xbmc4gamers guide pdf

The Xbox artwork installer is just that, Xbox. It doesn't install anything else due to the nature of the way it is coded by John. It looks in your game folders for default.xbe files and looks inside the xbe for the unique titleid numbers (which are the numbers your games saves are I'm UDATA). So apps do not have consistent titleids and many would have all zero's so the installer can't. For Emulators you can manually put the artwork on from GitHub. John may add these to the installer Application so you can use the manual install but not sure if he plans to do that or not. Unfortunately nobody has made application artwork really but if someone makes some good ones I am sure John can add them. At the very least they would need to provide a front and back scan image. Or you can use his artwork tools which you'll find on his YouTube.

I am glad you are happy. Component is what the Xbox gives out, Wii2hdmi are essentially component adapters so at best would be the same. The 360 cable quality is really nice, the individual and overall shielding is really nice.

Pretty sure scart isn't HD

It's infinitely better than a cheap Chinese cable (as outlined at the start of the tutorial) and is just as good as an official OEM cable. It is a fully Microsoft cable once you follow the guide and use an official 360 component cable that will be individually and overall shielded. No question about quality on this one.
