Reviewed in the United States on May 14, 2013
This came out as an accessory for the Xbox back in '01. Came with a dongle that took up a controller port, and this remote. You NEEDED this in order to play DVD's The Xbox wouldn't do so out of the box. That was a way for Microsoft to cut costs when manufacturing the Xbox.

I dismissed this accessory years ago when the Xbox was fresh on the scene. But then we found out how robust the Xbox is when modded. The Xbox has left the market ever since, but yet it still lives. Years later, I finally saw the light.

Perfect if you want to get a media center experience with your Xbox (via XBMC) I gotta say, it's pretty cool to navigate through the UI on my dashboard with the remote, rather than using the gamepad. Batteries last long, and it's ergonomic enough.

If you're searching for this nowadays, there's a very specific reason why that's the case. A worthy addition to any collection.

It was actually better than I expected with the description saying it was missing a battery cover yet it’s still having the OEM battery cover. Works better than I expected.

the xbox playback kit is lovely ! . my friend was thinking of buying a dvd player and I told him about the xbox playback kit because I saw that he had an xbox . I told him I would find him a playback kit online because we searched local stores and hardly anybody sells parts for xbox anymore . when I did the search online sure enough amazon.com was listed as having the part I was looking for so of course I ordered it . it didn't take long to arrive and my door . I was so glad and impressed that amazon was able to fufill my need . because I was able to purchase the playback kit I helped my friend save the money he was going to spend on a brand new dvd player . just because of that whenever I need to find something online I am going to check amazon.com first from now on . amazon is like my best online friend ! love you guys man !

Reviewed in the United States on January 4, 2013
I purchased this because my family's DVD player broke, meaning we couldn't enjoy movie night like we used to. So when one of our favorite movies was coming out that we wanted to rent, I purchased this to use with my Xbox in the hope that we could connect the Xbox to our TV. It worked, and we ended up being spared the cost of a new DVD player; instead, we plug my Xbox in to our big-screen TV, plug in the little attachment included in the package, and used the remote to play the movie. We've seen about five movies like this now, and this attachment by Microsoft saved us hundreds of bucks and made watching movies at home possible again! I thoroughly recommend it for any who own an original Xbox (not 360).

I bought this remote playback kit here on amazon for $6 plus shipping, and used it for about a week when I figured out that I didn't even need it. I had just got done with a softmod with the UnleashedX dashboard and went to watch a DVD, but the remote wouldn't work, so I just used the controller and later on noticed that the IR sensor wasn't even plugged in(Took it out for the softmod), so instead of buying this, put the money towards a good softmod.

Charged full price for a used remote with most of the buttons having been ripped off. Have to use a toothpick or press hard to work. Should not have charged me full price for this. Giving 2 stars because it at least works to select play and use arrows

Pretty hard to track down these days. My last one lasted 11 years, so guessing this one will last as long.10 points to MS for building reliable hardware.

1.0 out of 5 stars Is this a genuine product?
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 23, 2009
This didn't feel a genuine product to me. While the device does work it often needs several presses of the buttons and has to be pointed with precision accuracy at the receiver.

I openend it up and bent out the bulb connectors so it was more prominent from the body which helped - meaning you dont need to aim it so carefully.

My fault for not researching the alternatves properly, and expecting better quality from this reseller. Not cheap either.
