[Play VideosOffline] XBox 360 Error 51-C00DF236 Fixed [Play VideosOffline] Sunday May 24, 2009 TheSkepticalAtheist Leave a comment Go to comments The Annoying Introduction If you’ve found this entry from a search engine, you’re probably at your wits end 51-c00df236 no internet with trying to solve this issue. You’re trying to play a video file on
Xbox 360 Optional Media Update Usb
your XBox 360, but it won’t let you watch it unless you’re signed on to XBox Live. You attempt to 51 c00df236 download without xbox live play the video, but unless you’re signed on to XBox Live, you get a message saying you need to download an update in order for the video to play; an update that you’ve already status code c00df236 (countless times) downloaded. Well, that’s not exactly the problem. In fact, that’s not the problem at all. This all has to do with Microsoft’s annoying DRM (Digital Rights Management) practices. I’ll give you my story, and I’m willing to bet yours is similar. I got my first XBox 360 about 4 years ago. It finally died on me a couple months ago. Obviously, a 4 year-old XBox
A Media Update Is Required To Play This Content
is not under warrantee any longer. So, I went out and bought another one. Kept my hard drive and stuck it on my new XBox. Now, Microsoft’s sneaky little trick is that they only allow your videos to be played on the original XBox that you set your gamertag up on. Let’s call my original XBox that I purchased 4 years ago “XBox A,” and my new XBox will be called “XBox B.” Each XBox has a unique “Console ID” number. A long string of numbers uniquely identifying your particular XBox. Because I initially set up my gamertag on XBox A, when I attempted to play videos on XBox B, Microsoft realized that I was playing videos on an "Unauthorized" XBox that I had not originally set my gamertag up on. So, obviously they had to weasel their way into my life and keep me from watching videos in a convenient manner – meaning I had to be signed in to XBox Live in order to watch anything. That’s not to say there isn’t a fix, because there is. And here’s how to do it… The Solution Microsoft has a site where you can “Transfer Content Licenses to a New Console
blog post before you've broken you're Xbox 360. If you're trying to play a video file on your Xbox 360, but it won’t let you watch it unless you’re signed on to Xbox Live, then you've come to how to update my xbox 360 the right place. You're probably getting an error message (51-c00df236) saying you need to download an xbox 360 updates update in order for the video to play; an update that you’ve probably already downloaded. That's actually not the problem, although you will still need to download the update, which is called the "Optional Media Update." Due to Microsoft’s annoying DRM (Digital Rights Management) practices, Microsoft only allows your videos to be played on Xbox 360 you originally set your Gamertag up on. In my https://godkillzyou.wordpress.com/2009/05/24/xbox-360-error-51-c00df236-fixed-play-videos-offline/ case, I've been through 4 Xbox's in the past 5 years, and have had to move my account and licenses multiple times.I ran into the probably today because I have 2 Xbox's still. One is connected to my Gamertag that has an Xbox Live account, the other is not. I was going to do some workouts I have in MP4 format via a flash drive upstairs on my Xbox 360 that is not connected to Xbox Live, and got the http://www.gerryray.co/my-blog/how-to-watch-a-video-on-your-xbox-360-when-its-not-signed-on-to-xbox-live error message. The second I connected it to Xbox Live, it worked, but only when I recovered my Gamertag on that console.Whether it’s a DivX codec, or Windows Media, the license is for the player, not the movies. You will have to transfer your “license” to your current Xbox. Just follow these Transferring Content Licenses instructions and you'll be good to go. WARNING: You can only transfer your license once every 12 months. So, if this is not your primary Xbox, don’t do it. If you've moved you're account within the past 12 months, or have another Xbox you need to watch movies on, continue on.THE WORKAROUND! If you want to watch DRM content on a different Xbox 360 than the one with your Gamertag/Xbox Live account on it, or if you can't move your Content Licenses right now, then follow the steps below. You don't need a Gold account, you can just use a Silver Account, so don't go buy another membership for the following steps.Plug your Xbox up to the internet.Set up an email address or use an existing one not associated with a Gamertag, and then create a new profile on the Xbox.From your computer, sign in to your account at Xbox.com and add the Optional Media Update to your download queue. It should show up right away on in the active downloads.Once you've done that, this account will have it's own Digital Rights License, and
do this you ll' need internet (bring the Xbox over to a xbox 360 friends house ) . 2. Go to System settings/Memory/Hard Drive/System Items. 2. Delete Optional Media Update. 4. Now go back to Dashboard and sign out. 5. Create error 51 c00df236 a new gamertag using Silver Membership (free). 6. Now just sign in using the gamertag you just created. 7. Play the avi video from your usb drive ( The xbox will download the Media Update again ) You are all set, now you can play avi (mp4 xvid divx etc ) videos offline.

I had the same problem. i updated to the new dashboard and was no longer able to play avi. files so i borrowed my cousins 360 swapped my HDD onto it got the media update and a bunch of stuff for games. when i plugged my HDD back into my 360 it updated the system and im able to watch avi. files streamed from my computer using TVersity. thought i was screwed but now anytime i want an update or DLC i just take my HDD to a friends house that has a system that isnt banned. acarriaga, Apr 9, 2009 #3 jpizzle Regular member Joined: Mar 3, 2009 Messages: 1,686 Likes Received: 0 Trophy Points: 46 No all you have to do if follow this link they have the update there for download.
