I'm usings the LG GSA-H10L and it works like a champs. I took it out of the box and slapped it in and the first burn worked perfectly without any driver updates or booktype settings. I wouldn't blame the burner just yet. I'd make sure your backup was correctly made and maybe some different media. There have been many people saying the Hitachi doesn't like DVD+R DL media, so it wouldn't hurt to try some Verbatims.

I also have the LG GSA-4163b
It works with the standard firmware... I didnt upgrade anything. Burning Verbatim at 2.4x and I have a Samsung drive

cia100, maybe the media is causing the problems. What error do you get when putting the dvd into the xbox?

Have you heard of anybody having success with a LG burner with a hitachi? Just want to know before wasting expensive dl's.

I have only heard 2 people say that backups made with LG burners do not work with the Hitachi drive but they seem to work fine with the samsung. If you have a samsung you should be fine but if you got a Hitachi, either wait for a firmware update(common C4E) or go out and buy a Pioneer 110D or 111D. For media everybody is having the most success with verbatim's.

I have the same burner as speedspeed and im using the A117 (latest) firmware from http://tdb.rpc1.org/
so far I have tried 3 diff backups with no success on my hitachi drive. Thinking of getting a new burner now...

adrianhelles: Q i dont think there will be much of a difference between the LG GSA-4163b and the lg GWA-4164B, so they will both work or they both wont.

Semmel Q: i get a dirty disc error everytime.

so the people having success with lg burners are using verbatim media?

looks like i'll buy some of that before getting a Pioneer.

ill let you know how i get on.

cja100 · « **Reply #11 on:** June 22, 2006, 06:27:00 AM »

so i got some verbatim 2.4x DVD+R DL Printable, but no luck dirty disk error. so im begining to think its my LG GSA-H10A drive.

i have the latest stock firmware but should i try the danergous brothers firmware? would it make a difference?

cja100 · « **Reply #12 on:** June 23, 2006, 05:12:00 AM »

bought and burned with Pioneer DVR-111D and it works!

boots first time with verbatim media

so it was my LG burner that was the problem

Xcitedguy · « **Reply #13 on:** June 23, 2006, 09:09:00 AM »

I have a LG GSA-4166B burner and none of my backups worked with the Hiatchi drive, today I will be receiving my Pioneer 111D drive i ordered from newegg, hopefully this will fix my problem, I will post back with results...
