My question is, is the Netflix integration only HD or is that just an option? I have no HDTV but am considering picking up Netflix and using it through my 360 on my 26" TV.

HD is just an option, and I believe there's only 300 HD movies available on Netflix yet. granted 300 movies shoud keep you busy for a while :)

Are you sure you don't mean on console startup ?

I'm pretty sure that before this update(s) not starting a game when you inserted the disk wasn't an option since a few people complained about it when they where announcing NXE updates. or when peopel still though there was a spring update and where listing stuff they wanted in it.

That's what I'm saying :)

hmm a lot of Can't retrieve information from Xbox live errors on marketplace right now. guess they're still adding a lot of the new content stuff.

but damn browsing the marketplace is pretty cool now. When you enter for exampel download for Fallout 3 the entire dashbackground is a fallout 3 wallpaper.

oh yeah, there's now also more options for those who use hdmi. you can now choose what colorspace hdmi uses. not really sure if it makes a reall big difference but I guess it's something, and I haven't seen it mentioned before.

They added AutoStart, I blieve a few people earlier requested that.

you no longer have to start the game when you close the tray.

Awesome ! Yes, that's one of those little features that just enhances the whole experience that much more. Good one (Y)

Maybe I'm missing something, but when I put my games in my 360, they start right up :unsure:

      I really wonder if this has to do with the built in VPN or "private DNS" of browsers that trip up legal requirements like cookie consent and Cloudflare (to avoid all the botnet attacks we get). And BTW some botnets still manage to get past Cloudflare, we are constantly having to tweak it to block malicious traffic that ultimately cause a DDoS.

      CPPC states can also be messed around with in most UEFI settings but aren't as robust as the ones that the Windows Scheduler can provide! Make sure you look into what your motherboard also has before customizing for the Windows Scheduler.
