Hey guys/girls!

I was wondering if anyone could tell me if it's possible to get the optional media update for the 360 without being connected to live?

Cheers x

You have to download it off Xbox.com and burn it as an ISO on a blank disc. Then insert it into your system and install it. It's the exact same as installing dashboard updates.

You can't download optional media update from xbox.com, you only download system updates from there, OMU is about 2MB and you can get it with silver accounts too.

Has anyone found an answer to this? I don't have XBoxLive and cannot hook my XBox to the internet in any way shape or form.

I installed NXE off a USB stick thinking it would include the media update but it doesn't. Is there anywhere that has the media update to download?

To clarify, XBL is out of the question so USB or cd install is the only option available to me.

Actually I have downloaded the OMU with a gold and a silver account on my xbox but it doesn't work unless you are signed on to xbox live so I don't see what use it would be for you to download it from somewhere else. I'm still trying to figure out how to make it work when I'm offline.

DESPERATELY need an answer for this, too -- My university decided to just BLOCK a whole truckload of friggin' ports so I can't play online, or even access marketplace!!
Thus, I can sign into live, but can't download the update. Most frustrating thing ever. Someone be a hero, please...

Oh man I really need this info too. No way to connect to xboxlive and I NEED the optional media update. The worst part about it is that I have the update but stupid microsoft requires you to re-download it every time you take off your HDD.

the banned console will not play even if i put the hd of my other xbox on it ....they both have the nxe dash on them but i have been led to believe you cannot move the media update around to play avis as it is locked to the console. this seems to be the case.has anyone ever downloaded the media update from any where and got it working...theres a new update from ms that makes your hd install games..Before i have the fall 2007 update that can play .avi now that I have the new update its not working...not playing anyything except for wmv only...
