Yes, for X360 games the layer break must be at 1,913,760 sectors; however, if you burnt the image from the .dvd file (as you should ) then that file told ImgBurn to set the layer break at 1,913,760 (open the .dvd file in Notepad and you'll see ).

If the layer break in the settings is manually set to a value, and that value isn't the same as the .dvd/.mds file, ImgBurn will warn you of the different values and won't start the burn, thus saving you from wasting a disc

hi guys,

just wondering if the layer break setting set to L0 = 1913760
really needs to be done to burn the xbox 360 images.

up till now ive been using this setting, however

today i burnt an image and forgot to enter the layer break settings
and the game works fine in the 360 so im wondering if it actually
is needed at all ? the settings it was on at the time of burning
was Calculate Optimal.

cheers

what type of dvd burner do you have?

Hi guys. Right here goes. I've a game for 360 which i've downloaded and want to burn to disc for the mate that asked me to download as his disc is damaged.

1st off i know nothing about burning theses discs as i've already wasted 3 dual layered discs. I used Nero which from what i gather was 1st mistake. I have the iso of the game and a .dvd file. Nero or dvd decrypter will use the .dvd file, however ImgBurn will.
My 1st three attempts were basically run throughs and i just loaded img to nero and burned at slowest speed (4X).

My main question is if i load the .Dvd file using ImgBurn and burn the disc will it work. Its a USA game, region free. Also if anyone can point me to a comprehensive guide thats helps getting started with this sort of s**t. Any help appreciated guys, as you can imagine i don't want 3 failed burns to turn into 4 or 5.

Once again guys thanks for any advice given, I'd really appreciate any help with this

Put it this way, if it doesn't work, it won't be anything to do with ImgBurn.

Your drive is fine.

Make sure the firmware on it is up-to-date and that you're using decent quality double layer discs - which basically means Verbatim 2.4x DVD+R DL (MKM-001-00 dye) made in Singapore.
