I have so far been using a Kreon drive to read game iso's with Xbox Backup Creator and burn using imgburn with much success, but have recently tried downloading some torrents and run into problems getting a working disk. I know how to create dvd files, I'm positive I'm not having problems in the burning process, and though perhaps my problem lies in how I convert these archives to iso's using xiso version 0.7.3 L, but every time even on different downloads the file size is too small for even abgx360 to fix. So... how do I add in the... filler?

This means they are in structured folders. A JTAG Xbox360 will read games of this format from a hard drive.

JTAG Xbox 360s rip structured folders from the original 7.29 GB disc's ISO, taking only the data, and none of the padding (saving HDD space).

Can be done with Wii ISOs. I have no idea about 360 ISOs.

yeah I figured these downloads were designed for JTAG, I just thought there should a way to put the padding back in. I've searched and searched, so far have come up with nill, I dunno if anybody's tried it or its just not possible. The closest I've come is trying to set imgburn's settings on the output size of the iso, but that option didn't seem to be functional.

btw sorry for putting this in the wrong forum, I guess it didn't sound like I was but I'm actually trying to do this for original as well as 360 games. I've run into the same problems for both however.

I don't think it's been done yet.

Try using Qwix instead of Xiso. I used to do it all the time. They don't need filler. They are various sizes to begin with.

That's what its lookin' like. Not surprising given the shortage of jtag games online and as far as I can tell I'm the only one already havin' a kreon drive looking to convert those to disks as well just cuz I ain't been banned yet.

Its a good program no doubt, easy interface, and I'm sure great for jtag, but I can't figure out a way to make it work for what I'm trying to do. No build options, and every build is too small. Same problem. If there is something I'm missing though, please let me know.

I'm currently experimenting with creating dummy files large enough to get that magic 6.28 or 6.29 gigs depending on the system. Probably would be suicide on live but I really want to figure this out. Will let you guys know if I can get it to work.

I mentioned Qwix for the original games you mentioned.

I know. I'm tried it for the original games, and the results were as stated.
