Not really, and one of my computers isn't really a mac either - and that gave me an error on the verify portion but I have not had any issues with the disc yet.

I hope I get more people to test this out. I am pretty sure this software works - I have done 5 disks with it already...

I see that you recommend DVDR-DL does that mean that +DL will not work?
(sorry I'm a noob and gathering info for how to do this)

Also some people have been having problems with XBox Live does that mean that its not recomened to use the backup copies for Live?

No, DVDR+DL is required... DVDR-DL will not allow custom layer breaks. Sorry for the confusion.

In so far as Xbox Live, it is not recommended to use backups online. Use at your own risk. If you do so, your are in violation of Xbox Live Terms of Service and are in risk of being banned regardless of what software you use to burn the backup.

Hello,

I had reformatted my mac and put a fresh copy of leopard on it.

I ran your osx360 program and tried to burn a backup.  The burn process all went fine.  But again was not playable in the xbox360. While burning no other apps were running.

Looks like this wont work for me.

Thanks

Sorry to hear that... I wouldn't give up on it though. I don't believe the software is at fault, it's too simple to fail. Our computers are almost identical, so I would try to burn that same image on a pc, and see what happens. I had about 15 hits for my software since yesterday. I hope more people tell me if it works for them or not.

Good luck.

Hi m8.

Got good news.

I burnt my backup onto a Aone DVD+R and used your software and the game worked fine.  Same game I copied on a verb will not boot up.  

very strange.

I might reflash my xbox and up the speed to 12x and explore

Ok... here goes my first release with a simple ISO check. It will allow Xtreme style Xbox360 and Xbox1 disk images to be burned. It does not however check the SS/PFI/DMI/Video for valid data yet. I also updated the extract method to properly extract security sectors of Xtreme Xbox1 disk images.

As for the problematic burns I have been having, It is due to having a crappy internal dvd drive (MatSHITa - as Textbook called it). That has been fixed with either using a better drive (external) or using better media (Verbatim). I have made many successful burns just by doing that. DO NOT USE Ritek or Memorex media with the MatSHITa drive. It will fail to read.

Thanks.  Will try this too.

Is it safe to use Verb and Aone discs with the matshita drive?

I have verified Verbatim works with the Matshita DVD Drive. I purchased an external LG Slimline DVD Burner (GSA-50L) and it is much more quiet and stable during burns. It also loaded faster on the xbox 360. So I would say for the BEST results, don't use the Matshita - but it will work if you use high quality media.

I have added some DMI checks on my next build. I will need to do alot more file system extracting to put more stealth checks in place, but I will work on it.

I do believe that OSx360 is now the first Mac software to verify Xbox1/Xbox360 disk images. happy.gif

wolfienuke:  Would this work by anychance.

Ive got an Pioneer 111D drive.  If I got a IDE to USB adapter and connected it to my macbook to burn the backups instead of using the matshita drive

Would that possibly work well?

That should work. I have also tested Vervatim media with the Matshita Drive and that worked well too. It al depends on how much work/money you want to spend. I do prefer using my Pioneer 111D also, but I just purchased a nice slimline LG Burner and I actually like it alot.

Just wait for me to release the new version. I'm very close to releasing a version with full stealth verification.

Of course there may be some bugs at first so I will allow for burning the iso even if it doesn't pass. Maybe a GUI makeover as well.
