all you need to do is go into your settings and change the default dvd player to dvdx. I think its in the autolaunch menu. Then all you need to do is hit launch DVD from your dashboard. _________________

Very odd indeed. I use DVD-x2 donglefree DVD-Player through unleash all the time and it plays both originals and backups no problem. What happens when you try to play from dvdx? _________________

I had the same problem. Here is what you do. Put the game that you used to mod back into the the box and load the linux file. When it brings you to the main dash go into either the apps or file searcher and look for dvd regionXdoggle file(its something like that can't remember that name right now) Click on that and it will enable it. Then turn it off after you save settings and boot to your normal unleashed dash. You can't use the DVD Play icon at the top of the screen to play DVDs>Stupid name for something that won't work huh? Anyway go into your apps and right below txt editor there will be the DVD function. Good luck and let me know how it goes! _________________ RastaCalavera

Ya, have you actually tried opening the program and wen you put the disc in(if not already in) pressing A, this should make it play if it hasnt yet.
I would also suggest reinstalling DVDX Dongle Free(if you use it)if it does not work, ive used in multiple times in the past and it worked........just give things everyone is saying a try and let us know what the results are. _________________ Hotswap Tutorial|FTP Tutorial|HyperX Flashing Tutorial
