360 Update Tomorrow :O

I wish they would add:

Disable friend Notifications
Disable achievement Notifications

I'd like to know when I get an achievement without knowing when friends are on. I had 65 friends on my list last week and all I ever got popping up was sign-ins and it's annoying.

lol, that happened to me when I was trying to desperately get the Explorer achievement in TDU. Having a friends notification every 5secs being popped up drove me nuts.

And it makes PES6 lag whilst online, so I had to turn it off, keep missing achievements and messages notifications :mad:

Is anyone finding the dashboard tab (hitting globe button) sliding out much more smoother while within a game? I'm playing PES atm and upon bringing up the dash tab, it slides out well smoothly

Completely agree with this, I mentioned in a thread the other day. I'd just like to turn off the friends coming online message but still recieve all others such as game invites and new mail notifications.

It's common sense, I can't believe it wasn't in the original settings let alone either of the 2 major updates (Spring and Fall).

Try a resolution close to what you are using now. For some reason I get some kind of faint banding if I use 1280x720, but 1280x768 is fine.

Why is it its impossible to have more than 1 person in a pvt chat? That hopping about from channel to channel is bugging the hell out of me :mad:

Because it's a 'private' channel?

So its impossible to have a pvt disussion with more than one person? That channel hopping routines retarded, why they never had an option for a group discussion i'll never know. :confused:

Is it just me, or are colours looking a bit washed out again via VGA after the update ?

Oh well, maybe im just imagining things. Although to me, the colours look similar to how they were before the first update.

Faint horizontal lines on mine 1920*1080 on a dell 2407

Maybe try it back on 1280*720....

Has anyone noticed in the Audio Settings menu, the "Analog Ouput" option has disappeared? (I think you could select Mono or Dolby Pro logic II)

Now I only have the Digital output option...

Maybe it's the cable I'm using (Joytech RGB Scart + L/R Phono Stereo Audio) but it was there before the update!

Still get the Pal50/60 error when trying to play my xbox 1 games

I got the update without issue, and even managed to get the media sharing working, over wireless as well. Good stuff, but it took a lot of effort on the PC side. I can see why they are touting it as a big feature in Vista.
