LIGHTNING UK!

I doubt you'll be able to just build a new working image like that. Go and ask for help with what you've downloaded from wherever you download it from. This kind of chat doesn't belong and isn't welcome on this forum. Sorry.

This is not and xbox forum, I thought we'd already spoken about that?! If you've got an ISO, you just burn it as you would any other ISO... using Write mode. Why would you extract it anywhere?

Go and read the thread about this drive in the Drives forum. It shows you which discs the drive can and can't burn nicely to.

Sometimes players just don't use/display CD-TEXT info. They might rely on an Internet lookup database... and of course a custom compilation isn't going to be in it.

They're drive settings and nothing to do with ImgBurn itself. The drive should remember them internally.

Nope, ImgBurn's default settings work just fine. Well, having said that, you'll want to make sure you're burning at 4x.

You don't just click 'ok', no. You select what you want to modify/do (i.e. 'Force HyperTuning' or 'Clear OPC History') and then you pick the correction option in the 'New Setting' drop down box. Then you click the 'Change' button. You should get a 'Success' prompt after each of them. When you've done both, that's when you click 'OK'.

Once you've enabled it and then done 'clear opc history' from the same 'advanced settings' screen, yes.

You must be over thinking things. Can you not find the 'Change Advanced Settings...' button down the bottom right of the the Write mode screen in ImgBurn? Write mode is what you go into when you click the 'Write image file to disc' button on the 'Ez Mode Picker' startup screen. Once you've clicked that button, the 'Advanced Settings' screen will pop up. It's pretty obvious where the LiteOn tab it, it's got 'Lite-On' written on it.

The payload tool working and the drive being able to overburn nicely are 2 very different things. In my testing, they never seem to work unless the 'Force Hypertuning' option is available and enabled. Click the 'Change Advanced Settings' little button/icon down the bottom right of the screen when you're in Write mode. Switch to the LiteOn tab and everything I said earlier should become clear.

They won't. Invest in the tried and tested hardware.

It's a firmware thing. It doesn't show the extended size for all of the fields/values it should do.

Doesn't it just work without crossflashing?

What sort of files? You can't burn 6 disc images to a disc (it's 1 per disc) but just adding 6 files to a disc is fine - they'll keep the same names they've got on your hdd.

yes, do what I said using the drive advanced settings screen - you want the LiteOn tab.

What the op wrote about write speeds is obviously a mistake and therefore should just be ignored. Changing the write speed has nothing to do with reading - so it's either bogus info or they meant to put 'read speed' in which case that's just one less thing to recommend. I know from years gone by that safedisc / securom type protection on game CDs would make a drive throw up errors like that early on in a read operation and no amount of changing the read speed will make any difference. The copy protection is there to stop you from copying the disc - and I'd say it's doing its job quite well.

Something to do with the 'gear' filter driver installed by iTunes perhaps? That shouldn't really be causing a problem though as it's fine here.

Just enable 'Force HyperTuning' and perform a 'Clear OPC History' operation. Then try again. Oh and you can't burn at 2.4x so don't even bother trying. Put it on 4x and forget about it.

ImgBurn is a GUI app - period. The fact it can accept certain CLI parameters is a bonus. For CLI use, you'd use /NOSAVESETTINGS - as documented in the ReadMe.txt file. If you don't want any settings to be saved anywhere/ever, use an ini file (ImgBurn.ini) and set it to 'read only' via the normal file system permissions.

It's probably part of the discs copy protection.

We'd need to know the details of what you burnt.

MultiAVCHD should do the job too... and it's free.

It's probably just due to the copy protection on the disc. We / ImgBurn can't help you here I'm afraid.

If you put google.com in it, when your machine tries to resolve google.com, it'll get the ip address you specify in the hosts file. That's all it does. You'd have to also list every subdomain - www.google.com etc. I don't think it supports wildcards etc.

Some drives just can't do it and some discs just can't do it. Buy the recommended (and tested) hardware / media if want it to work as intended.
