I have now burned and played Conan, Gears of War and DMoMM:Elements but....
Always a "but" isnt there?

I randomly get this error message saying: This disk cannot be played, please clean the disk and then restart, or something like that.

When this error appears i can hear a sound from the DVD drive in the Xbox 360.
Its like the disk is stuck and trying to play but it cant. *click* *click* *click* over and over.... '-_-

I tried to set the console from standing to laying down, but it didnt help.

What can i do or is there nothing i can do about this?

i understand that now you have completed a burn correct?
and your getting dirt disc error correct?

your 360 is flashed with the ixtreme correct?
your using VERBATIM DVD+R DL which is perfect,now just make sure you set your bit-type to DVD-ROM:)

answer those questions and we can continue from there

Hi All,

I am having the exact same problem as DeeHK:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DeeHK (Newbie) 27. March 2008 @ 11:12
Hello,
I've used this thread to try and help me produce my own backup copies because i've bought about 35 all off the internet but I've realized that I can actually do it cheaper. However this method is turning out to be more expensive as I can't seem to get it to work!!
Obviously my 360 is compatible because I have never had a faulty backup copy, however I managed to burn 14 Dual Layer discs and have had 1 success so obviously there is something im doing wrong!

Here are the steps I take:

1. I download the the .rar files
2. Extract them to produce the .dvd and .iso file
3. Burn using CDclone 5
4. "Unplayable Disc"
5. Throw it in the Bin

Im now tired of this repetitive frustration and so am looking for some final help before i give in.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

However, i have a slight different setup

I am using VERBATIM DVD+R DL (5 coasters so far out of a box of 20)
i have an LG Burner (HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA 4168B DL13)
As per the instructions i have updated my firmware using the latest region free firmware (DL13 Windows (RPC1))

booktype has also been set to dvdrom for dvd+R DL media

One thing to note is that my rar files extracted to only 1 ISO File
The source is reputable and i doubt there is anything wrong there

I have no idea what else to do, always coasters :(

please someone :(

thanks

How can you tell if they've been patched?

Thats was gonna be my question :)

One of my ISOs has an NFO file which says patched for stealth.

is there a way to know if a file has been patched?

All of the torrents came in like a bunch of files so they had to be rared. I rared them and they turned into one or two files. Examples:

What do I do with these?

load the iso in mulleter

click next and make sure all of the boxes in the xtreme compatibility section are checked

I don't Usenet, it uses me.

skate-thats an iso file :) you can load that into CloneCD and burn with easy (2x/2.4x with DVD-ROM booktype)

Army of two- that one comes with a .dvd and a .iso, you can load either into imgburn or clonecd and burn but we all suggest you load the ISO and burn that:)

did i miss anything:(

I now have 8 burns completed but only 3 games will play '._.

Dirt disc error, yes.
The other 5 games wont even start. DOH!

I have flashed my BenQ drive with the newest iXtreme Firmware 1.41 for the BenQ drive.

How the hell do i set my bit-type to DVD-ROM? :P

PS: The game wich runs best is Conan, i only get Dirt disc error after 20 min of playing or so.... but still, pretty annoying. aRGH!

GAME ON!

Yo Tripplite,
Just to let you know the Verbatim Discs worked a treat!
8 games, 0 coasters!
Cheers for the advice!
I didn't think it would make that much difference but it does.
So for everyone else who is having a similar problem as mine stated
(on page 91)
Just Use Verbatim Discs and You should be fine!!!
Thanks Again!

Now that i have successfully burnt a game, i just have a question, when i put the game into my xbox 360, it says there is an update available and if i don't download i will be logged out of xbox live. Is there any risk in downloading these types of updates?

thanks,

good for you, most people are ignorant and will buy the cheapest media then whine for two pages about how there games wont work:) verbatim is a sure thing:D

well if your bit-setting isn't at DVD-ROM none of the games you burn will work.....
[you cant change bitsettings in cloneCD]
look here:

i also understand that one of your games gets an error half way through? defiantly a media issue you are burning with verbatim correct?

Yes, as i said in the last post im using Verbatim DVD+R DL discs.
I found out that the bitsetting was DVD-ROM so that cant be the problem.

Can it be the ISO?

Just a reminder, im having the Dirty Disc, please clean it with a soft cloth etc. error.

GAME ON!

due to the fact that one of your games loaded and played for 20minutes before giving you a read error either means your burner is wack or your ISO is no good.....have you tried a firmware update? try burning with imgburn instead of clonecd!

So if I want to change the booktype, do I just do that through DVD Decrypter and then burn it on DVD Decrypter? or CloneCd or what?

I'm doing burns now, I have no verbatim discs yet but I'm trying the Memorex ones anyways because they couldn't be sent back because my dad already opened them. =/

My book type was already set to DVD-ROM and I tried burning with CloneCD and it said it was a sucess burn, then I put it in the 360 and it says Mixed Media Disc and then I click it and nothing happens. What does this mean?

Will there be a better success rate if I burn at 1x?
