Problem Burning Games Options

[zedder1]

I have been burning xbox games for quite awhile. had a break of almost a year now im back into it.

here is my issue.

I am fully updated to lt 3.0
I have a IHASb burner. it is the correct one. it is reflashed and it worked before.

I am running all my ios through agbx and they come out good.

I am using imgburn.


now i have been following the stickeys to familiarize myself again. i have followed a few turtorials and i have come up with 3 coasters so far.

Black ops 2 will not even register on my box.

halo 4 says disc is dirty/unreadable

for the hell of it i tried a older title i have which is gear of war 3. and i have the same result of halo 4.

What setting on imgburn is working for you guys?

i am setting my buffer to 512MB which i have NEVER done, but the new tutorials are telling me too.

on the lite on tab i have checked and unchecked various tabs off according to the tutorials.

i have opc check on before burn and burn proof checked off.

layerbreak is chosen on its own and burn speed is aws and i even checked off 2.4x and so far nothing.

help!!!

oh yeah, im using up my memorex dl dvd. ordering verbatims on boxing day. But i have rarely made any coasters with these discs.

I think ....

You need to set your LayerBreak physically. (Don't let in be an automatic) In the Tools - in Write. You need to be on top of the Layer Break setting. Check it with each burn

2133520 - for XGD3
1913760 - for XGD2

Think that step is very important.

And I would highly recommend just sticking with Verbatim. Especially with game releases of 2012. They are just more proven.

i am trying a new tutorial for memorex discs. if it doesent work, i will add in the layerbreak.

i dont mind making the coasters as i have no other use for the memorex, i am DEF buying verbatims on the 26!

thanks, i will let you know if it works.

it worked for MW3. played for 3 mins then it came up disc is unreadable

your layerbreak worked for farcry 3. works on my kids benq drive. wont work on my samsung drive. odd.

I went followed a tutorial and set all different clicks and checks. Everything burned great. Then my hard drive crashed. New hard drive, installed IMGBurn again, but this time I just went with default settings, forgot about the tutorial I read. Still burns everything great. Your .DVD file should have the layer break set for you. You can delete the .DVD file and run through Xbgx360 and it will build a new .DVD file for you.

Make sure you are using latest Xbox Backup Creator to rip your games.

Make sure you are using latest IMGBurn. If needed, reboot the PC so the only thing working is IMGBurn.

Check that all Xbox consoles are updated to the latest dash.

That's my two cents. Hope something here helps.

Im not ripping the games, havent gotten that far into this.

I have the latest imgburn and agbx.

Both my samsung and my kids benq fat xboxes are fully updated to the latest dash as of 2 weeks ago.

it must be because of the media. Most of my older burnt games are on verbatim medium. A few are on memorex.

I just find it odd that his box will read the 2 games, where as both of those on my box will come up as disc unreadable. I wonder if my samsung drive is that much more "picky" about the medium being used.

2 years of this and this is the first time i have actually had any trouble doing this, i am quite tech savvy but this is throwing me for a loop.
