    Xbox 360 HD DVD Player


    I recently found an Xbox 360 HD DVD player and I have a bunch of movies for it. I have an Xbox 360 Slim. I am trying to play the HD DVDs on the player, but I don't think the Xbox 360 recognizes the player. Is there anyway to get software for the player via download? Or, what process should I use to get the player working with the Xbox 360?

    :)

    I regret to inform you that Xbox 360 S console cannot play HD DVDs. You still need to have an HD DVD player for you to be able to play HD DVDs. However, Microsoft Xbox does not sell Xbox 360 HD DVD player anymore.

    HD DVD Support

    Hi Ouligars!

    Unfortunately, the Xbox will not play HD DVD's without the Xbox HD DVD player. I have one and they are certainly hard to find these days. If you have the Xbox HD DVD player, then a HD DVD app will appear in the Video tab. As far as I know, non-Xbox HD DVD
    players are unsupported on the 360.

    Of course, if you meant you found the Xbox HD DVD player, then as stated above, you will find the app for it in the My Video tab... Hope this helps!

    It would be pretty cool if the HD-DVD played 360 disc games too

    Can you even get HD-DVDs? Yes. Amazon and eBay, for example.

    Run Xbox 360 games? No.

    Use HD-DVD Player on the PC? Yes, but only for CD/DVD/HD-DVD.

    HD DVD Drive - Will it ever work for XBONE S or X?

    The HD DVD player was released for the Xbox 360 during the middle of the "format wars" between HD DVD and Blu-Ray, and Blu-Ray was the ultimate victor.





    If you want to continue using that player, you'll have to hook it up to another working Xbox 360 console.

    There are no plans or announcements to add support for the HD DVD player on the Xbox One. There hasn't been a movie released on HD DVD since 2008, and you can get the same movies on Blu-Ray or streamed online anyway.

    Will you be keeping the 360 when the 'nextbox' comes out?

    I'm also keeping my Xbox 360 to use the HD-DVD Player because I'm 100% sure that the next Xbox console won't since HD-DVD is dead.
