Well, I downloaded the XBOX 360 update which added IE to the platform. My immediate reaction is 'cool', but what does this mean for us Premise junkies?
Traditional Premise - It loaded the UI, prompted for the ActiveX connection; I selected yes, the the home page appeared. Nothing beyond that. I wouldn't be surprised if ActiveX was left out of the delivery. I did find already, someone asking if ActiveX works on the 360 - so we're not alone...
Moved onto 123's Minibrowser. Unfreakin' real. A 50 inch MB sitting in front of me...some quick checks - everything works. Well, sort of. I'm tickled that my MediaShortcutEx works - the display stays, the music plays thru the stereo (XBOX is Input 3), and all of the selections work. However, MediaZoneEx has an issue - it goes to the MSense connection for the media device (In my case, 'CD' which is Input4), which then renders the screen blank. That is core Premise functionality and not a MB issue. Something to look into...
That is the only glitch I have found in my couple hours of 'testing'. MB will be the vehicle for iPAD, Windows Phone 7 and iPhone, and now the XBox360.
123 - nice job! You kept Premise relevant going forward into the 'in'ActiveX world!
(I sure hope SYS runs on Windows 8!)
