    HDMI cable ? You wouldnt need even an XBOX.
    I think they also sell the add-on which you plug into the controller port, should be cheap nowadays on Amazon or something.

    Reaper is back ? 0.0

    na, i tried to do the same thing like when it first came out. You actually need the hookup through the controller port to actually play the DVD's. So Im thinking the limitations exist such as for the USB.

    You can always try modding it, but always risk the chance of friggin the thing up:

    the 360 supports avi format so you can copy the movies to a usb flash drive.

    i prefer to use the xbox hdmi cable and connect it to my laptop though; takes less than 20 seconds and i can watch 1080/720p ;)
