Of course, I guess it depends on what sort of condition your original is in as well.

my iso was complete at like 7.08gb or something i forgot the exact size... but the tutorial written by mtksoftware has the part on how to do a game backup and is not clear at all....half of the tut is not clear and has the wrong wording as to which is displayed by some programs e.g "isobuster" and doesn't explain it properly which i had to use other tuts to finish the job. but aside from that then after the isobuster part of dumping your game.iso, it then says for last step. Copy the game.iso and ss.bin to the xbox1 or xbox 360 isobuilder dir....
I dont even have a damn ss.bin! where does this tut pull a ss.bin out from???????? when it doesn't tell you how to obtain it in first place!!!!! now i have to go through the trouble of finding all this out and redoing everything properly!
*sigh* what a waste of time!

Ok well so if i have the main iso ripped? how do i know it's ripped correctly? is there a way to check it? or can i check it after i have run the iso through the xbox 360.bat to give me my finished iso?
Can anyone point me or quickly post here the procedure to obtain the ss.bin ? i want to be sure it's done right as i don't want a coaster, $7AUD a DVD+R DL Disc isn't an everyday thing lol.

When you receive a read error dialogue box, choose fill with blank
zeros for sector and select use this selection for all errors."
Now, the copy is finally progressing. I am currently at 10% and counting =D I will post once a successful backup is complete or if anything changes

ok, after waiting 5+ hours at 5% extraction in isobuster, i decided to eject the disk and see if I could get it to reread and continue copying. I ejected the disk, got the read error as described on mksoftware's tutorial and performed the following step from the manual : "Save your file as game.iso
When you receive a read error dialogue box, choose fill with blank
zeros for sector and select use this selection for all errors."

ISO dumps take about 30 minutes. I have done Kameo, Graw, and PGR3 and all three took that amount of time.
