guys, i just got 360 modded and i have had some problem with burning the games its one of the first systems out there and none of the games that i burn will work on my xbox 360 here is what i do and if someone could help it would be aprreciated.  All i do is i download the game off of a torrent site like balck cat games and they usually are pre patched so i just unrar then i burn it using clone cd and i have used memorex dvd+R Dl and verbatem dvd+R Dl and neitheir work and my burner is an LG Hl-Dt-St DVD Ram GSA 4160B, thats the code i got off the properties of my computer, when i burn them they work on my freinds sytem but not mine

[jaybert]

maybe this will save some people some headache....


Lite-On SHW-160P6S coastered 2 disks using firmware P0B (the latest), getting power calibration errors.  Downgraded to P09 (2 from the newest) and works fine.

Using verbatim media, at both 2.4x and 4x...both work great.

i don't think taiyo yuden makes Dual layer discs, or at least I havn't seen any

Actually they do make D/L DVD-R discs but they are currently only available in ASIA.  That and given the format and the cost I'm not sure I would risk the purchase.  Believe me though if they made D/L DVD+R discs and had them widespread, I would ditch my Verbatims for them in a heartbeat.

Firmware Xtreme 50a
360 Drive: Samsung ms25a
Burner: Pioneer 111d
Media: Verbatim +R
Speed: 2.4x DL
Method: clonecd 5291
3 games all working, gets ópen tray'error everytime i press eject to power up the 360. other than that eh ok

360 DVD: Toshiba-Samsung TS-H943 ms25
PC Burner: Samsung SH-S182D SB04
Method: SchtromXtract
SATA Chipset: ICH5 and ICH8 (both fine)

Traxdata 2.4x DVD+R Dual Layer Non-Printable
Disc Dye: RITEK D01
Burn Speed: 2.4x
Burn App: CloneCD / Imgburn
Success: 100%

RiDisc 8x DVD+R Dual Layer Non-Printable
Disc Dye: RICOHJPN-D01-67
Burn Speed: 4x, 6x, 8x
Burn App: CloneCD / Imgburn
Success: 0% at any speed (25 coasters)

Aone 8x DVD+R Dual Layer White Faced Printable
Disc Dye: RICOHJPN-D01-67
Burn Speed: 4x, 6x, 8x
Burn App: CloneCD / Imgburn
Success: 100% at 4x, 0% at 6x (1 coaster), 0% at 8x (1 coaster)

Traxdata were far the better discs, but of course are the most expensive. RiDisc discs were horrible, they all burned sucessfully but failed verification on imgburn and all issues were in the second layer of the disc, randomly from 52% -> 67% before I got an I/O Error about the condition of the disc. Aone discs were excellent, although only write at 4x sucessfully and passing verification on imgburn, if I burn at 6x or 8x with these discs I get I/O errors in the first layer when verifying even though they burn sucessfully. The other problem with the Aone discs was a very small amount of stuttering in the games, or random loading. I backed up my Gears of War original for example and I'd say about 3 or 4 times during the game it would stop and load for about 1-2 seconds then continue fine.

Think I'll stick with the Aone discs, they burn faster, have very minimal issues and burn nearly twice as fast as the Traxdata discs, although the Traxdata were easily the best out of the 3.

360 DVD: Toshiba-Samsung TS-H943 ms25 (Currently Flashed to 4.2B - Plan to go to 5.1C)
PC DVD : SH-D162c Running Kreon 8.1 Firmware (For making ISO's)
PC Burner: Pioneer DVR108D (Updated Firmware to 1.20)
Method: Xbox Backup Creator 2.3 (xtreme)
SATA Chipset: Via 6421a External PCI Card

I use XBOX backup Creator to make the ISO's, but have had better success using CloneCD to write the ISO's back to disc (Rather than relying on XBC to make the burn).


Use Verbatim +R DL's at Burn Speed: 2.4x

Success: 100% for 7 Tries.

it works on a strange manner. sometimes i cannt boot the disk, it gives black screen with DIRTY DIS-error,
but sometime i am lucky to load the game)

as u can see i got some strange and contradictionary situation.
halo2 on maxell works better than on platinum.
but all other xbox1 games on platinum work good. strange, isn't it?

my question is:
what is the best single and dual layer disk for me (with plextor px-716a burner) to get my samsung ms25 fw 5.1 working with?

burner: pioneer 111d (1.23 original and 1.29 updated firmware)
media: memorex 10 pack red package on sale at 20$canadian 2$/ea.
Disc ID: RITEK-D01-01
burner app: imgburn
in my opinion pioneer and imgburn are pretty good burning material no problem so far

burned 33 backups all fully working and no errors so far on the working dvd's
failed only 2 backups with a laser position error but i think it was me making to much vibration around the computer (i also had 5 other failed backups but for other reasons then media brand )
so 2 or 3 failed out of 40 thats good... and for reliability if kept in good condition i think there will be no problem !

media is carefully stored in 10 pack tower when not in use and everything has been really fine
I use those to keep the original in perfect condition to do another backup if needed but NEVER have i reburned a game cause the backup media was not working anymore !
bought 4 pack of 10 memorex on special at 20$ each pack on bestbuy.ca site (still on sale)
and next time i will try the fujifilm there 20$ canadian for a 15 pack on sale at futureshop.ca 1.5$/ea. pretty nice deal

just my 2 cents:
even if 1 or 2 backups fail out of a lot its way less iritating when you pay 1.5 dollars each coasters instead of 3$ or more that verbatim costs and theyre as as good for me so far
search for any deal on something other than bogus names brand dvd+r dl's and youll be very happy
