It is a little more complicated but not much. Here are the basic rules.
1. It will be a dual layer ISO image so you can burn with any ISO burning program. I prefer IMGburn myself.
2. You must use dual layer discs, preferably Verbati 2.4X to 6X
3. YOu must use Xbox Backup Creator V2.4 or Schtrom o check the image you get for "stealth patching) which is a simple one button click process. If all passes your good to go. If not then you must stealth patch it yourself. Also a fairly simple process of downloading some files (SS, DMI,PFI) and injecting them into the ISO with either of the above programs.
4. Burning the image at 4X has worked every time for me.
5. The rest really depends on which DVD drive you have in your 360 and which firmware it came with.
A)If you have a HItachi drive with any of the firmware then EVERY game you burn must be a stealth copy and you must booktype the media to DVD-Rom
B)If you have a Samsung drive with Extreme 5.0 to 5.3 then you do not have to do either of the above, although stealth patching can help you not get banned on Xbox Live, and booktyping helps with compatibility in your console.
C) If you are running a Samsung with the newest iXtreme firmware then you must do the same as the Hitachi drive when making games. I do not think booktyping is required but stealth back ups are or they will not play.
360 back ups on Live are always a risk, like any other Xbox system in the past on XBL there is a chance you will get caught and banned. The iXtreme firmware was created to help with that. Stealth back ups and booktyping will also help. A lot of people have been banned and wuite a few more have not. So right now it is hit or miss really, all you can do is follow the above rules and do everything you can to help prevent yourself from being banned.
If you have any specific questions then just ask as i just kind of breezed through the above, but trust me it is no harder than the old PS2 with Swap Magic thing where you had to rebuild ISO files or remove dummy files. In fact it is much easier than all that.
