Nathan, 2 Red lights usually means overheated. Let the Xbox cool down and make sure that the vent holes are not obstructed. If that does not help, I'd suggest that you use these guides to open it up, Clean every thing, check the fan and consider new thermal paste. The reason why it does it when you play games, is because it does not use as many internal resource to play the videos compared to running a complex game.
