[mythtv-users] What version of Xbox is best for myth?

[anders smith]

I have what I think is a 1.6 model (PAL Crystal edition) and it was
soft modded just fine. The one problem was that I couldn't use the old
kit and had to get the latest version from ldots.
You can find it in the usual places....
