Not a bad, realistic list of additions. (XviD being the obvious exclusion for a lot of people.) Nothing terrible that I see-
Oh no. I don't need a message every time a company posts up a new Gamerpic. (Alright, that's not technically "in-game", but it could be something along those lines.)
One thing that would be nice is if downloadable video content could support multiple languages and optional (soft) subtitles. Bring in the anime and foreign film crowds easily.

Deserves to be quoted multiple times. Anyone who is upgrading to an Elite, 120GB HDD, Falcon, etc will quickly notice all their DLC got raped. This should have been resolved with the Spring Update, dammit.Phoenix Fang said:
I assure you this is all fake.
1. The chat pad already works with he current software.
2. The Vision Camera doesn't have any firmware at all
3. IPTV Functionality is completely misunderstood by whoever made this up. It's not something you "add" to a 360. It's something your local cable provider delivers.
4. Xvid when pigs fly
It's also grammatically horrible.
Don't be so gullible people. I could tell within 2 lines that this was fake.

I visit Live Marketplace often, yet every single time, it spends ages downloading icons for games every single time I load a page. Can't we just cache this shit already? I have a hard drive, make use of it!
Same thing with my Live Arcade games. Can't I just have a last known good list to load rather than having to wait for it to check the validity of my purchases and downloads?

DIVX is actually a strong possibility as there is a company associated to the codec. Much like iPod support for AAC, or even MP3. MS doesn't own either codec and has to license the codec.Rodeo Clown said:
MS could totally allow Divx Inc to make an Xbox 360 version of Divx that could be downloaded through the dash much like the iPod support.

The DRM issue is another valid problem, they promised to make a remedy for this before the elite came out, I had one HELL of a problem trying to use my xbla games while on vacation, always fighting to find some kind of internet connection. MS really fucked up there.

Why is this even on NeoGAF? It was posted on the xbox forums and with no source.
Give me the ability to delete games off of my gamercard, make the user interface a little faster, fix the drm and I'll be happy.

that's when i smelled the bullshit
it already does this!
there already is, albeit in mp4/mov containers, just not your pirate mkv'sSpinning Plates said:

I haven't found any 20/22" LCD that does that. If you see black bars on a screen, then that's usually the work of the video card, not the monitor. There's a setting in your video card drivers that allows the monitor to keep the aspect ratio (and add black bars), whereas the 360 doesn't have this setting (yet).btrboyev said:

Xvid is open source so it has nothing to do with licensing. If anything, it's the codecs association with piracy that Microsoft would be wary of.

Xvid, that would be a megaton for me. I call bullshit.

Yeah it sounds nice, some are possible but probably not the whole list.
Anywho, i want 16:10 support damn it.

Uhm, no. IPTV set-top boxes comes equipped with a Windows CE-based GUI that was already shown running on the 360 last year. Obviously this latest dashboard (if its true anyway) will install the software into your 360, effectively making it IPTV-ready. What your ISP provides is the feed/content. They're (usually) not the ones making the set-top boxes (one i had was a Motorola), much less the software inside.gohepcat said:
The hell's with all these misconceptions on IPTV in this thread anyway, geez....

they are branched from the same code base, but far from 'the same'. They share lots of commonalities, but if something is encoded in the latest DIVX, you need the DIVX codec, not XVID, and vice versa.ant3b said:
Also DIVX is a licensable software suite, so you can license it for hardware. Much like MP3 with Fraunhofer license you see on majority of MP3 players, and other codecs. While XVID is GPL'ed, which makes it highly unlikely that any major hardware company would add full XVID support.

Damnit.
The one thing I want from this update is the ability to play Live Aware games (like Crackdown or Gears) in single-player while keeping background downloading on. It's a pain in the ass and MS just refuses to fix it, when it should be incredibly easy to do. Just let me turn off the Live Awareness of the game or something.

It wouldn't be a problem if everyone just used the same damn nickname everywhere. But, nooooo.. SmurfNinja2873 on NeoGAF becomes EliTeShadowRez1337 on Xbox live and JJHeadshotter26 on PSN.
They "pop up" coming on to Xbox Live and I'm like, "Wha? Who is the hell is that?". Not realizing it's just SmurfNinja2873 from NeoGAF. Why can't people stick to a single freakin nickname???
It's a pet peeve of mine... If you can't tell.

All aboard! The Love train!
I meant PlayStation 3 wise; however, thank you for pointing that out. Does this mean that Sony has the DivX license and could potentially use it for the PS3?The Faceless Master said:
Why not just get friends with more memorable names?Crowza said:
I know damn well that when I come online every mother fucker on my friends list knows who it is.
AFAIK this is to do with people being able to join your Co-Op games, every game on the 360 is Live aware isn't it?ShockingAlberto said:

No it just means that it can't support the particular res of 1680x1050. You can use non-16:10 resolutions on a 16:10 monitor which causes the image to stretch and the quality/colors to degrade. Some monitors have built-in aspect ratio. You can definitely use the VGA cables on your monitor, just can't use 16:10 resolutions.
There is lots of simple no brainer stuff they haven't done yet. MS is a big corporation with a lot of red tape and hoops to jump through to get anything done. They have to keep everything within certain size limitations etc. They do a good job with updates but this best be a beefy one.
