"Xbox DVD Remote"
This product does everything I wanted. I can navigate through shared folders, browse for movies, queue up songs in a playlist without having to be restricted to the length of the controller cable. The IR sensor works at all distances in our living room and being cable free is great. This product was easy to set up and if you use your Xbox for more than playing games then this is a necessary item to own.

"xbox dvd adapter"
I gave it to my son for christmas and now he tells me that it has never worked.


"Really Worth Considering"
I already have a player; it's my first so I can't really tell what others are like but it's very slow to load DVDs and CDs and sometimes won't load disc at all and yes the disc is clean and relatively free of scratches, but I digress. I am familiar with computer hardware and I know that quality can make a huge difference in performance on your computer as I imagine most have experienced themselves. The actual disc drive in an XBox is a superior drive. It has to be on order to play game discs alone. Picture ans sound quality are actually better when played on an XBox compared to my DVD player.


"Fits the purpose... But..."
What is the purpose?? To have my xbox play DVD movies for me.

We had a shelf of electronic items (DVD player, VCR, Tivo, Cable, CD Player, Tuner, etc) and I wanted to consolidate as many items as possible. We didn't need anything serious for our DVD player so I figured why not just use the xbox as our DVD player. With this kit we were able to do just that.

The one feature that we did NOT have with our older DVD player was the ability to increase the FFWD (fast forward) rate. This is something that we enjoy with our Tivo player and it was great finding this feature was available to us with our xbox.

The downside to the remote... There is no power button and at times it would have been nice to have one. But with this remote and the fact that we use the xbox daily we have just opted to leave the xbox on all the time.

I would have given this 5 stars were it not for the lack of a power button. If this isn't a real problem for you then I definitely would recommend this item if you are wanting your xbox player to play DVD movies for you.


"Ups and downs"
Great product, but my delivery time was the complete opposite, maybe you will have better luck than me.
