Title: Soft Modded Xbox Cant Read Burnt Games And Dvd's
Post by: modchips4ever on February 21, 2005, 10:10:00 AM
I finished soft modding my xbox today everything was working good I used the Soft Mod Installer Deluxe. I put in one of my burnt games and in the tray panel it said unknown, then i put a burnt dvd in and it said the same.. unknown i pressed play media in cd drive and it didnt play, my other xbox is soft modded and it has a thompson drive and doesnt have this problem. Is it my samsung drive?


                                                                   Thanks

Could it be that my soft mod does not have the bios, i dont know if when i install the soft mod it comes with the bios or do i need to put the bios in the xbox manually?

So bassically all it is, is the samsung drive that cannot read R+ disk's right?

I dont have a burner that does DVD+R so Ive never experimented with it. But I know you can edit the bit settings when you burn to make it compatible with the Sammy drive. I'm sure if you search, (The game backup section to be precise) youll find your answer.

I know this is a really dumb question but I am a noob what is the bit settings, and so your saying that I canchange the settings on my burner so that the samsung drive can read R+ blank dvd's right?

I hate bumping but.... BUMP!
Title: Soft Modded Xbox Cant Read Burnt Games And Dvd's
Post by: lordvader129 on February 22, 2005, 09:57:00 AM
1 bump per day

you have to chnage the bitsetting of your dvd burner to DVD-ROM (instead of DVD+R) this is dependant on what burner you have, so whats th emake/model of your burner (and be warned, it might be support bitsetting changes)

My model is LG Tri-DVD Formats
8.5 GB DOUBLE LAYER
DVD+RW/
DVD-RAM

Dont I need to change the setting on Nero?
Title: Soft Modded Xbox Cant Read Burnt Games And Dvd's
Post by: lordvader129 on February 22, 2005, 10:13:00 AM
thats the make, but it should have a model number too (you might have to pull it out of your computer to check)

some burners allow you to change the setting in nero, some have a tool that lets you edit it, some require a hacked firmware, and still others have no options
Title: Soft Modded Xbox Cant Read Burnt Games And Dvd's
Post by: modchips4ever on February 22, 2005, 10:17:00 AM
I think this is the model number.

Use DVDInfoPro to set the bitsetting before burning.

Seroiusly man. Vader's a respected member AND a MODERATOR. When someone like that says only bump your post once a day please do it. It's forum rules and good etiquette to boot.

If I were you modchipsever I would buy some DVD-R's. Try different brand media. I have a sammy and I always buy DVD-R's. I've played around with the bitsetting and it works fine but I'd rather be sure so I stick with DVD-R's.

The only + media I use to is DVD+R DL, can't wait for the DVD-R DL.

Look here http://club.cdfreaks...ead.php?t=97590 for an example about booktype setting. I know it's not for your burner but this is what I used to reflash the firmware of my LiteOn SOHW 812S
