Hi Lisa,
I have a modded Xbox already, just need the extender, can you give me the details of the ebay retailer you purchased from please.
How long did it take to arrive?

I think it was a company called 'indigo media sales' or something like that, I can check my old emails when I get home. I actually did the purchase outside of ebay for a discount. However  this looks ok, it may be the same company with a new name? Pretty cheap really. It arrived in about a week.
There is a free update pack available from Microsoft, and although the website says they don't ship outside of US and Canada, they did ship it to me at my UK address for free, it took quite a while to arrive though, about a month. And then it made the video stutter, so I stuck with version 1 disc anyway.

Nothing obvious, I was having a problem with aspect ratio... having to quickly press stop and play on the xbox to get the ar to show correctly. I haven't had to do that for a while, but it was mainly whilst watching Big Brother, which has now finished so I wonder if it was particular to that transmission?
