Software you need: Xbox 360

Getting the update free through Xbox Live is the best option because your HD DVD Player will be updated automatically with the latest software updates.

In order to update your Xbox 360 HD DVD Player over Xbox Live, a broadband Ethernet connection to the Internet and an Xbox Live account are required. The Xbox Live account can be either a Gold or Silver membership.

1. Connect your Xbox 360 console to your broadband connection. See http://www.xbox.com/connect for details.

2. Create an Xbox Live membership or add Xbox Live to your offline profile, if you haven't already. A profile can be created from the Dashboard by pressing the Xbox 360 button and selecting "Sign In" or by pressing the X button. The Dashboard will take you through the process of creating a profile, but you need to select "Join Xbox Live" to finish creating the profile.

3. Your console will be restarted when you join Xbox Live, so be sure to save your game progress before doing this step.

4. You can also add an Xbox Live membership to an existing profile by selecting "Join Live" from the Xbox Live blade of the Xbox 360 Dashboard.

5. You will need to enter in some information to create your membership (such as name, age, membership type, etc.) The whole process is painless and should take about five minutes or so. Select any type of Xbox Live membership you want to get these types of updates.

6. Following the addition of your Xbox Live membership, you may be asked to update the software on your console. Select "Yes" and wait for the update to finish.

7. Finally, make sure you're signed into Xbox Live, and then place a HD DVD movie in the HD DVD Player drive and close it. This will cause Xbox Live to send an update to the HD DVD Player, if necessary.
