I used MCSE to swap the RITEK-04-66 burn method with the RicohJpn one to allow 2.4x burning.  My TDKs would fail before @4x but now @2.4x they burn well, not Verbatim quality, but quite solid.  I'll post a scan when I get around to it.  Lite-On iHAS124B bought in November of last year.

I've "successfully" burned Forza 4 backup with the MediaCodeSpeedEdit trick, meaning forcing 2.4x speed. The disc is verified but when I put it in to my Xbox it doesn't load the game icon in the dashboard and the disc gives me a disc error code. I got the same effect both on Maxell and Platinum disc. The verbs are failing to verify on 50%.

The drive in my Xbox i OK, I've checked it. It flawlessly runs Battlefield 3 and GOW 3 backups, which are made on Platinum discs. What can be the problem in my case? The mentioned copies are made using overburn method. So far I had no luck with LitON iHAS-124 B.

ive tried pretty much every combination with 2 different 124 b burners on win7 and xp and it only works when it wants to work with the mkm003 verbatims, trying again in safe mode in xp and it will probably do the same crap

burns fine then fails verify at 50%, does it with xgd2 games too, im beginning to think these burners or the firmware is absolute shit

Maxell's media id is Ritek S04-66 and Platinum's is MBIPG101-R10-65.
With those settings you mentioned I got a I/O error at 50% on verbs (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) So I decided to burn discs at default settings, that is everything OFF except Smartburn. This way it reaches 100% but it fails anyways.

Yes, I did... It burns the DVD and passes the Scandisc test in NERO but it won't start on the console. The disc spins down and there is no game icon in the dashboard.

Did you have another Pc that you can test it ? or maybe did you have and external enclose or maybe a X360 Pro ? Also try making a new USer in windows and go there (you will not have lots of stuff running in backgroud) and test

MkM 003 check OPC and burn at 4x

I burned lots of ritek s04...so far good

If this will help anyone out I finally got successful burn with settings below on Memorex with disc ID: MBIPG101-R10-65 Verify 100% FINALLY!

iHAS324 98B on nForce chipset. (If chipset makes ant difference)

I 20:44:41 OPC: Yes
I 20:44:41 BURN-Proof: Enabled
I 20:44:41 Write Speed Successfully Set! - Effective: 5,540 KB/s (4x)
I 20:44:41 Book Type Setting: DVD-ROM
I 20:44:41 Advanced Settings - Force HT: Yes, Online HT: Yes, OverSpeed: Yes, SmartBurn: No

I personally think it was that damn SmartBurn feature because I finally stopped being stubborn and disabled it.

My backup of Gears are running as I type. Installed to HDD 100%

mine is saying cant copy copy righted game
so means i cant use my 124b to copy games like i did with old sh-d162c  drives  with kreon v 080
so how then please send me the site ok steps to read the original game dvd plzz

Mate, no offense but you probably shoudnt be copying games if you dont understand how the process works. Theres 26 pages on this thread along with hundreds of other threads that explain the most up to date info on making a backup.

But to stop this thread from filling with spam you need an original drive from a 360 any lite-on or benq drive will work and it needs to be flashed with C4's 0800 V3 firmware for ripping so until you have one of them theres no need to explain the rest.

[filletofish]

This isn't meaning to be rude or anything (I'm british we're never rude  (IMG:style_emoticons/default/jester.gif) )...

But the last 3-4 pages have just been people saying how to do the burn.

It's common knowledge at this point, as a starting point...

4x media...OPC on, HT on, OHT on, Smartburn on\off try both, overspeed off.

2.4x same but OPC off.

4 pages summed up in 2 lines.  (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

If you still get crap burns, then buy some verbatims or chance your luck further with a different dodgy brand. People don't seem to realise that with the cheap discs there is a massive variation in quality from pack to pack. I've had Aone discs that out of 25 only 2-3 would give a good burn (for XGD2)...Other times every one has been perfect, although generally speaking that is rare.

Liteon burners are wildly unpredictable in manufacturing quality which doesn't help matters either.

I'm sure all this has been said already between different posts but it's getting a bit silly, those options are what you have so make do and if you're not happy still...pay up!

edit - in regards to swapping write strategies in Mediaspeedcodeedit, there's resources and findings from many people over at cdreaks forums. This sort of thing has been doen for years by them and they will have some definitive "good" swaps you can make. I'd suggest having a read there and then posting back here, there's people there who are obsessed with the perfect burn.

That's a damn good burn there even if it were verbatim media, fyi you should scan at 4x for reliable results.

If you see down right, u will see the speed is 3.33x so i think he used 4x (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)




Those scans are more or less the same i have with memorex, the only problem we are having is the avg PI that is high, everything else looks fine.

Pretty sure that is the speed at the 100% mark, Liteon iHAS x24 burners start and end at about 3.3-3.4x (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

That was definately run at 8x just noticed the green curve.

ive got a LiteOn iHAS124-19B brought from amazon (uk)
flashed it using the exact steps in the pdf tutorial
setup imgburn using the exact steps in the pdf tutorial (using mkm003s with opc on, verify on and at x4)
burned gow3, batman arkham city and battlefield 3 (both disks)
every disk burnt 100%, verified 100% and plays perfectly

sorry to hear people are having trouble

above i was using the mk003s with the printable label
i tried burning another disc using an mk003 without a printable label and it failed at 50% verification, dunno if this info helps but thought id let you know
