I've been searching various forums about backing up backups so I can then insert the SS PMI DMI info but can't seem to get anything to work..

Used Schtrom 2.1 to backup the game.iso then used SS Merger 1.7b which 'looked' like it worked but produced a dead disc... xbox_backup_converter v2 doesn't like the disc because it doesn't contain SS info...

sort of caught in a catch 22 situation...

ps once I have managed to do the above can the 'backup' be duplicated 'by copying the disc' with a program like CloneDVD..

Im not sure what your trying to say at the beginning of your post but yes you can use clonecd or Nero to make bakups of your backup without patching again.

I backed up a backup of call of duty 2 both on fugifilm DVD+R DL and the copy I made will not play on my console but the original backup does, could it be my burner that is no good? its an hp dvd writer 640 c, i changed it to dvd-rom in dvd info pro both backups look identical in dvd info pro, but the copy i burnt will not play. any ideas on why? should I go buy a pioneer 111d external dvd writer to do the back ups

thanks

External burners are crap in my eyes and I wouldn't reccommend using one. It may work however, but I'd never do it. Maybe when you patched the SS PMI DMI files again you screwed up the copy.
I'd try taking the backup and making a .iso file with DVD Decrypter. Then burn the .iso file at 2.4x with Verbatim DVD+RL. You can also set booktype info in DVD Decrypter but the options of which burners are supported are limited. I doubt you'd have to do that anyway since you said DVD Info already has that set. Try that and see what happens.
