Does anyone have more details about those false positive CIV errors and how Microsoft reacted on them? Is AP2.5 not a ban criteria anymore?

Can someone explain a little bit more for me please.
 
Right now i can rip a XGD3 game using IMGBurn and play my backup copy on my L.T.2.0 360. Why should i buy this drive and flash with the max FW if my current drive is successfully burning these XGD3 ISO's.

When you rip the game, you end up with an ISO that's 8.13 GiB in size. The disc capacity is 7.96 GiB, so the ISO doesn't fit on.

Using the previous burning method, you would select the truncate option in ImgBurn and that tells ImgBurn to burn as much of the ISO as will fit on the disc, so when the burn gets to 100%, that "100%" actually means that the disc is 100% full, not that you've burned 100% of the ISO. You've only burned the 97% or so of the ISO that will actually fit on the disc and that is causing some new checks to fail in Forza 4 (and possibly other games).

Burner Max allows you to burn 100% of an XGD3 ISO to a regular DVD+R DL disc (presumably using a custom overburning method - although I'm just speculating there) which means that the checks in Forza 4 (and any future games that use the same checks) no longer fail.

EDIT - I see you found your answer while I was typing this reply! Haha.

I flashed my 224B (converted to a 624B) with it last night and it's worked fine so far. I've burned a couple of games at 4X on MKM-003 discs and scanned them with KProbe and the error rates are well within limits, and the games play just fine on my 360.

Yay! mine should get here first thing in the morning.. Nice.. I will verify my bum ;-)   (for safety lol ).. yep it's still there!

I'm a little annoyed that I didn't notice that the model no.s differed but that's cool.. (I'm happy to have) ..... Now I get why he said they were commonly available.. as Ihas124b's aren't that common..
Anyways.. Thanx again C4! and everyone else who contributed to this !

Its got to be the most common model available in the uk as its the cheapest of the 6 in the range, because most of the models internal hardware is almost identical so you can crossflash the drive to a higher model. I cossflashed my IHAS124 b w to a IHAS524 to give me the extra features. It now has LTMAX on it and is working perfect with the verbs, just got to find another brand to work rather the the expensive verbs or they fine tweek the firmware to suit other media. Thanks go to C4E.

Worth reading this and this.

[Retroplay]

iHAS124B + Verbatim MKM003.

Burn @ 4x with OPC: Verify failed at 50%.
Burn @ 2.4 and no OPC: Verify 100% success.

So I'm gonna stick to 2.4x.

All I need now is LT+ 2.0 for my 79FL.

[pinkerton]

All we need now is for XGD3 support with ABGX to check our rips.

How did you burn at 2.4, my iHas124B won't allow it even with opc off.

Why would you convert to 624B? Does it give you 624 features?

I just selected 2.4x in Imgburn.

Maybe your media don't support write at 2.4x ?

[evans05]

why can people burn at 2.4x and the lowest i can do is 4x?

[Retroplay]

What media are you using ?

Yeah.

All of the models that start with an odd number are the same in terms of hardware. So are all the even numbered models. You can convert a 123/324 to a 524 and you can convert a 224/424 to a 624 to unlock the features of those models.
