Alright, I have gone through about 8 DVD-Rs now and I don't know what's wrong. I downloaded NCAA 07 and everyone on the comments said it worked fine. I've burned a few games in between and they all work fine but NCAA 07 won't load at all. I just got the new version of ImgBurn and it was telling me MOVIEDAT.dat was the wrong size or something and the burn failed. Does this mean the img file I have is currupt and thats why it's not working? Is there a way to fix this? I suppose i'll just go rent it and back it up that way but some info for the future would be appreciated.
anyone? It seems as tho most of the newer games I try and get don't work, except I just got FlatOut 2 and that worked flawlessly...im just gonna try and rent it today but would still like to know what the heck is wrong.
For a start, try to wait more than a few hours for a reply. People dont sit on these forums waiting for you to post!
Secondly, don't double-post, use the EDIT button if you have something further to add, as per forum rules.
Use DVD Decrypter to burn the iso on good quality media at 1/2 the discs max speed.
I've never heard of a program reporting that a file inside the iso could be corrupt! Sounds dodgy to me!
Make sure you have ImgBurn in write mode, not build or verify. Go to Mode-->Write. The new version of ImgBurn contains an iso building feature, I'm thinking that might be the issue. Only burned one game with it so far, it worked, but I obviously can't extrapolate much from that. The old version of ImgBurn was super reliable, if 2.0 is as good, there won't be anything to worry about. What's the Media ID of the discs you're using?
91. Q. What is the Media ID of a DVD and how can I find it?
A.The Media ID of a DVD is the true measure of it's quality. It contains prerecorded info about the disc's manufacturer. The quality of the disc will vary depending on the media code. The media code isn't visible on the disc or the packaging. To check the media ID, Open DVD Decrypter, insert your disc, and check what it says under Media ID or Manufacturer ID. You can also use a program called DVD Identifier which is very useful. You can find it here: http://dvd.identifier.cdfreaks.com/ Compare the Media ID to this link: http://www.digitalfaq.com/media/dvdmedia.htm Huge List of Media ID's (Thanks to DogBomb): http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/155431
