Help!!! I need a tutorial explaining how to burn a Gamecube iso that works!

Hi, i've just installed a XenoGC mod on my Gamecube, and recorded my first isos donwloaded from the internet on mini-DVD's Dotcom. My DVD recorder is a LG.
All the initial games that I recorded run, but at some point appears a message of error...
Searching in the web I was not able to find an answer to that problem neither an updated tutorial of how to burn GC games on mini-DVD's.
I read something about dumping the mini-DVD to fill its size to 1.5Gb, but no names or links to a program that actually does it.
Also that my LG recorder and Dotcom media were bad choices to sucessfully burn GC games.
Please someone help me, I'm going nuts!! hahaha

 

Yeah, chances are that it's the media.

Check the media ID so that you can find out just what level of quality those discs have. Also, you could try getting a firmware update for your burner. Go to www.rcp1.org for the latest firmware.

Additionally, you may want to use Nero or ImgBurn to burn the image files to disc.

 

thanks
it revealed that's it's a second class media.
i tried nero 7 and clone cd
i've burned 6 mini dvd's and only one appears to be fully functional...

 

did you install the xeno? How was it? Pretty easy?

I've read that the gc is pretty picky about it media, or at least some of them are.

are you using -r's or +r's?

 

i paid for the installation, and i use only -R

 

hey. i was having that problem. just use ritek -R. worked prefectly after that. also, i have been looking for some good GC torrent sites. can you just tell me the site, or PM me it.

 

Joh's GC Tracker is the only worthwhile one. However, it requires that you become an active member, so depending on it's popularity you may have some trouble getting an account. It's been a while since I've used it though, so I have no idea what it's current state is.

 

yeah i know that, but i can never sign up

 

Had a similar problem with Zelda TP and XenoGC, downloaded 3 rips and burned like 5-6 times and would always crash at the same place.
Then I decided to burn with Nero 6 instead of Nero 7 that I had just installed the previous week, well guess what! it worked!!!

I don't think Nero 7 is very good at burning images, burned 2 pc apps images, and both discs were completely unusable. I'm gonna switch back to Nero 6.

 

Actually, Nero 7 has mixed results with GC games.

For some it works great while for others it doesn't work at all. Back when it first came out there was a big argument about it. I've used it a several times without any problems (Xbox, GC, PS2, and DVD movie images)

 

good days are coming shortly,,
but for me,still cant enjoy my gamecube game zelda :twilight princess,,,
could any-one be kind to guide me ,how to burn on dvd-r disc!!!!!!

 

OK, one more time:
-Open "Nero Burning Rom" and close the "new compilation" window.
-Click "Recorder"-> "Burn Image"
-Choose your image file, burn speed, and burn.

I use Ritek -R(full size) and burn at 4x.
And Nero 7 doesn't work for me so I use Nero 6...

 

ok,boss!!
i shall try and see!!!
i need to go shop,and buy me some more disc!!!!!

 

nero 6 does works !!
thanks mr.hert13 !!!!!!

 

It's almost amazing how many people gloss right over the whole, "Use Nero 6 because Nero 7 rarely works" step of burning GC backups, isn't it?

 

i have tried other softwares,,with no results ?
to burn twilight princess!
1 disc burned by clonedvd2{latest version}--- failed???
2 disc burned by imgburn {latest version}--- failed???
3 disc burned by nero 7 {burning rom} --- failed???
4 disc burned by nero 6 {burning rom} --- successfull.!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

i cant understand what happened??
burning zelda twilight princess with nero 6,is sucessfull !!
but,burning zelda the wind walker with nero 6,is not working,,???????
how come !!
please any guide on which software can burn & make this zelda wind walker work on gamecube...!!!!!!!!!!

 

Could somebody link me to a thread/tell me how to make my gamecube play fullsize dvd-rs? I remember it had something to do with destroying the top cover, but it would be nice if I had a tutorial.

Thanks.

 

anybody?

 

Easiest way I found was to buy a replacement top case for like 20$
