I dropped the duckets on a dual layer to backup gow, but freezes when I try to save at the temple of pandora's box. I'm making a iso and mds from dvddecryptor, and burns back over no prob. Has anyone successfully done this or do I have to modify, if so whats the simplest way( which includes the cinematics ) thanks

no modchip, fliptop with 3.6v Swap Magic Disks, works pretty good, have a successful backup collection so far, all the others are on single layer disks though

No idea.. I've never known anyone get it to work with sm before on dual layer.. but that could be why you have problems with it... I suggest rebuilding it to DVD-5 as per the guide.. it works great for me all the way through.. with just one long loading time during the cliffs of madness, about 5 mins... then it's ok again right to the end.
