A stupid question and it's probably already been asked here but...

if I use this method to backup a game, wouldn't I have to have a hacked firmware to play the game on my 360?

QUOTE(http://www.xbox-scene.com/xbox1data/sep/EEukZpklFAhkcWwSgZ.php)

As you (should) know, all Xbox 360 executables (XEX files) are signed by Microsoft (with a private key only MS has). This means that if you try to change anything to the XEX file, the signature will be wrong and the file will not boot.
Now ... to protect from booting an exact copy of a game from a DVD-R or other recordable media, microsoft gave each XEX file a 'mediaflag'. This mediaflag tells the Xbox 360 from which media (cd-r, dvd-r, dvd+r, dvd-rw, hdd, dvdxbox, dvdxbox360, ...) the XEX is allowed to boot. Changing this mediaflag in the XEX header is not an option as it'll break the signature of the file (see above), so ... what's done in this firmware hack is 'break' the detection of the disc.
Retail games usually get a mediaflag where they only allow 'dvdxbox360' (Xbox 360 discs - different than a normal DVD because it has some specific bad sectors and special info in lead-in/out that can't be written with a standard dvd burner). The modified firmware will trick the DVD drive into reporting a DVD-R (or other) as a DVDXBOX360 to the Xbox 360.

@tessaiga
this has nothing to do with dvd decrypter.
What you are refering is not a method to play backups, I believe you need to read.
here and here

and no there are no magic way to play backup without flashing your drive. sorry

Do you have to do the DVD firmware hack first?

The author of dvddecrypter has continued the burning part of his software under the name Imgburn (Freeware).

when i press the burn button, it gives me an error saying it cant lock the volume, because access was denied. is this important?

sosotiit · « **Reply #80 on:** May 27, 2007, 07:59:00 AM »

you should use Imgburn which is the new name of dvddecrypter ( Tutorial: XBCreator & Imgburn ).

also note that you probably having Another software locking like Alcohol, anydvd, daemon tools...

Well, the reason I didn't take the .dvd out and just rename was because I hadn't tested that as sucessfully working. But theoretically there should be nothing wrong with doing that as the .dvd file just tells the program what file to load. So really, I don't think it would be a big deal, I'll modify the tutorial after I test it working (should work, but you never know, lol).

nice tutorial i am total noob at this but can u plz help me, i got no idea where to get that IMAGE.DVD file can u plz help me =)

Ugh.. For some reason I have the same problem. Probably my stupidity..
But, how are you supposed to back up the disk in the first place?

how was the backup made (extracted from original)?

software/drive/fw?

on what media are you burning?

jaroc · « **Reply #89 on:** October 30, 2007, 08:54:00 PM »

the backup is fine im thinking its something with the media or the writer because i tried to burn something else that was double layer and got the same thing

im using Memorex DVD+R DL on an LG writer model # gsa-4160b
