~Johnny Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 It's quite nice... TV isn't live yet, and I don't think it's as nice as the previous dashboard... it looks like it renders in 720p, whereas I'm sure the previous rendered in 1080p. It certainly looks a tad blurrier >.< It was certainly easier to explore a lot more without digging deeper into options in the last dashboard. I'm sure they could have gotten that one to work with Kinect too .__.

Knightwolf20024 Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 I'm sad now :( I tried restarting/dashboarding. I'll just leave it for a bit. run an xbox live connection test some times you need to do that for it to trigger.

Jan Veteran Posted November 10, 2011 Veteran Share Posted November 10, 2011 Damn, the only time I can't access my Xbox and the dashboard rolls out, FFUUUUU. Oh well, another two hours and it'll be mine :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1031607-update-new-xbox-dashboard-preview-now-avaiable/page/9/#findComment-594445925 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathachew Veteran Posted November 10, 2011 Veteran Share Posted November 10, 2011 Played with it for about 15 minutes. Looks good. I haven't used the ESPN app in a while, but the new one is pretty nice, as well as the Zune app. I'm more curious about the TV apps though.

Guest Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Got it installed, I was hoping there'd be more apps on release but oh well. It's a nicety, nothing ground breaking. And yes, before you say so, this is what I expected :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1031607-update-new-xbox-dashboard-preview-now-avaiable/page/9/#findComment-594445977 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nogib Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 whoa...native MKV support!!! let me repeat that, native EM.KAY.VEEEE!!!!!!!!!! MKV with H.264/AC3 plays just nicely! Not true. Doesn't recognize mkv files on a flash drive still. If you are streaming from Windows Media Center, your PC is still doing the decoding.

Hopes got up for nothing :( WMC is so slow on my 360 playing content from my network drive (also have to remove/add the computer else WMC locks up when I return to it alter). I just use the HDMI from my PC because it's so much trouble.

Guest xiphi Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 Was glad to come home to this surprise. :D Re-downloading all of the apps is a bit of a drag, though.
