    I may be corrected on this, but the DivX etc. codecs shouldn't be too big to download over dial-up I wouldn't have thought.

    Yeah, you can download and burn, and I think Microsoft will send you a disk with them on it if you ask.

    Nope, the one you need for divx playback is "optional media update"
    Sorry, in work at the moment so can't look for a link for you...

    cheers, i dont think that one has the media update for divx. Just the latest dash changes etc. I wonder can you actually get the media update on its own.

    It should be included. However it's a complete bitch to install. Only ever managed it once out of about 10 attempts.
    Best advise is take xbox to someone with broadband and update there.
