Subject: Genuine Problem with Halo 3 Trailer on Xbox 360.

yeah, technically this would belong in the halo 3 forum, but it would probably work right in the underground since it is more of bungie general.

I don't know about the problem though, as i haven't had it.

Have you and some of your friends tried downloading the trailer again?

That may fix the problem... but I don't know as I've never heard about this problem until now.

Sir_Brilliant, I would like someone to actually see this thread as it relates to a problem with Bungie's content (there baby many would say right now). I highly doubt anyone of particular importance looks in the Halo 3 forum, but again I apologise.

Yes, we all tried re-downloading it and it's not solved it.

Apparently, it's to do with the WMP version.

No idea what that is, just saw that on a forum. Guy said he had the same problem with the 720p one on his PC a while back.

Let's hope the fix is soon, I watch that everytime I switch on the thing (yes I'm sad).

I can tell you, having watched it atleast 100 hundred times (no joke), that it's meant to be White, Black, then the Halo 3 logo sequence thingy.

Firstly, I realise that this is probably the wrong place to post this, but if anything's to be done about it, then I reckon this is the place.

After downloading the Xbox 360 dashboard update today, my Halo 3 trailer has been 'buggy'. Buggy in the sense that when it fade's to white near the end, instead of going totally black, a horrible white mark appears right dead centre. I'm not alone in this as many of my friends are having the same problem.

Just wanted to bring it to Bungie's attention, although I realise it's nothing to do with you. (When something breaks the best part of my 360, well I'm pissed!).

EDIT: We (My Friends and I) all tried re-downloading the trailer but to no avail.

I just watched it now. There is this large white blot in the center of the screen. Sadly, this being the Halo 3 forums, I doubt that anyone from Bunge can tell us whats going on.

Don't speak for others.


And one thing I would ask is about the formatting,and the effect of the new dashboard upgrade. JAY and Sir Frag and Gendo are all from that little island in the North Atlantic that uses funny TV interlacing. (You know, the one so wierd they gave it a friendly name: PAL)

I would imagine it may be related to that because I haven't seen an issue with the NTSC people yet. Hopefully this will add visibility to your problem.

After reading this thread I went to check it out, and sure enough I have the same problem. I never saw that little white square before I updated my dashboard.

I tried that, it didn't work.

"You have been measured, you have been weighed: And you have been found lacking."

I concur. This problem didn't exist until I downloaded the update.

Strange delima...

I'm not redownloading the trailer... last time I kept getting stupid "Trailer Cannot Be downloaded" errors that I had never experienced before...

Took me 5 hours to download the frickin thing.

But the problem is potent, tolderable, annoying, and potent

The only thing is that a lot of people in North America are getting the same problem.

Possibly, though I am using a VGA cable - which post-update looks bloody awesome - rather than SCART or Composite.

Has anyone thought that maybe this is some kind of easter egg or clue? Perhaps there is a website or telephone number or something that leads to another "ILOVEBEES" style viral marketing campaign.
