Hey everyone. I am new to the forum but not new to modding. With the xbox 360 games, I would just like a little input on how to burn them. I have a couple games downloaded and both games have a .iso and a .dvd file. With the original xbox, I know I only need to burn the .iso file. But with the xbox 360, what do I do with the files I have? Do i need to merge with the .dvd file? Do I burn the .dvd file or .iso file alone? It does not seem like I should just burn the .dvd file alone because it is only 32 bytes and the .iso is 7.5 GB. A little info on what I should do next would be awesome. I've had these games downloaded for a while and have been searching at what to do with them so I don't waste my dual layer DVD's cuz these bitches are expensive. Alright guys, take it easy and thanks for your time.

you're correct, pioneer's don't support bitsetting, the good news is that pioneer drives automatically bitset dual layer media!! :) gotta love pioneer.

so, just load the .dvd file in either the newest version of imgburn or clonecd and burn :)

either download and install the latest version of imgburn or clonecd and then open the .dvd file and burn w/ either one. the .dvd file is just a text file which contains the image file's name and layerbreak info.

Thanks for the replies guys. I think have found my solution. For what I have for programs on my computer right now, there are 2 ways I can go about doing this:

METHOD 1: Run DVD Decrypter and load the .iso file to burn. Open up a MS wordpad and open the .dvd file. That will show me the layer break. In DVD Decrypter, I then go to "tools" "options" and then the "ISO write options" i think it is called and then enter the layer break code in the box on the right and I am all set to go with my Dual Layer burner.

METHOD 2: My dual layer burner came with a copy of ROXIO DVD-R DL software. This software apparently does not need the layer break code to burn dual layer as it is formatted to detect the file size and the layer crossover. This is the method I usually use for burning the Dual Layer DVD's and it seems to work. I will post once I have my chip installed and have booted one of these discs.

Thanks again!!

Use method 1, works like a charm, but you left one step out, once you put the LayerBReak in DVD Decryptor you need to REMOVE than line fro the .DVD file and save it before burning.

Ok. How do I "remove" it? Do I just delete it in wordpad and then save it? Or how am I supposed to remove it? Thanks

If I were to buy a new 360 right now, what drive would it most likely have?

and why is it that everyone keeps saying samsungs are better for modding?

X2 3800, A8n deluxe motherboard, 7800GT, Xion 2 case
2GB Patriot DDR 400, Audigy 2 ZS gamer, 400GB SATA RAID 0
games Im looking forward to: bioshock, SSBB, enemy territory quake wars, halo 3
currently playing: command and conquer 3, supreme commander, counter strike, shivering isles

The type of drive you have depends on the version you buy. Premiums and Cores have different drives. Originally, Cores had the Samsung and the Premiums had the Hitachi/LG. The reason why most people say Samsungs are the best is because there are less wires to solder the mod chips into the samsung (4 wires) compared to the Hitachi/LG (11 wires). So, there is nothing functionally better about the samsung as compared to the Hitachi/LG, it is just easier to solder chips into.

is a mod chip needed? I thought it was just the extreme firmware that was needed...

No, a modchip is not needed, it is just that there continues to be ever-changing versions of firmwares and I have the "fuck it" attitude where it would be a better investment for me to get the modchip rather than extract firmware and repatch every 20 days or so. It's pretty much all up to the user as to the preference of what is used

HI mate, many thakns for the guide to burning 360 games but i have encountered a problem.

Followed as you said and DL scarface. I opened the .nfo file and it said 'The game is not in the Database' then said 'ISO looks like an xtreme way made iso (No video partition)????

ANy ideas what I am doing wrong?

Silly question, when looking at the .nfo file how can you tell if it needs a patch or not?

Thanks

I read through this entire thread but it's 4:30 am here and I may have missed this...I'm gonna order the pioneer 111D drive soon (the black version 111dbk to be exact, which I certainly hope is absolutely identical to the non BK version not counting the color....knowing this stuff it won't work...lol)

Anyways my question is: What is the preferred +R DL media brand for this drive, should I stick with verbatim or is there a better choice in anyone's experience for the 111d drives?

Thanks you all.

While Verbatim seems to be the media of choice for nearly everyone here in this forum as well as the xbox-scene forums, that is probably your best bet to go with. I, myself, use Memorex, which some people are not too fond of, but I have had no troubles with burning the games.

I haven't had any problems using Fuji w/ my shitachi.

Yeah, see, there's no one true media or burner to use.

Yah but even though some crappier media works, a lot of it works you're drive 10x the amount, I have noticed that a ton. A friend burned a couple games for me on Fuji and they make my drive go NUTS even though they work, so I moved them on to Verbatim and quite as a whistle. Big difference.
