  1. The disc you're copying the files from is dirty and/or scratched. You should try some cleaning kit on it.
  2. That's the Ninja_Gaiden_Black_NTSC_XBOXDVD5_For_XBOX360-USELESS release, right? The u-ngb.nfo from that release states that it fits a DVD5 disc, but requires that you have a Toshiba-Samsung TS-H943 on your X360.
  3. Canopus Procoder 3 features. It isn't freeware, though.
  4. That time is calculated based on a 1X data CD-ROM read speed, which has 2.048 bytes per sector read at 75 sectors/second, resulting in 153.600 bytes read per second. 4.706.074.624 / 153.600 = ~30638,5 seconds / 60 = ~510,64 minutes
  5. Please do, as soon as possible. As you can see here it's a pretty bad media. Here's the link for Verbatim DVD+R DL media if you want to compare.
  6. Have you tried burning this to a single-layer DVD+R? It seems it'd fit. Also, could you open your F:\Burn DVD\u-ngb.dvd with Notepad and post its contents here?
  7. I haven't done it myself, but there are guides for doing that at VideoHelp.com. You might lose some quality though. Another option would be to buy a DVD player that always outputs a NTSC signal, no matter if the DVD disc is PAL or NTSC. I have a Phillips DVP642K/78 (old) that does it and always outputs 480p via component cable.
  8. If ImgBurn can read the discs and make an ISO image of them, when you burn that ISO image to dual-layer media it'll be an exact copy of the original, no changes whatsoever. By the way, only use Verbatim DVD+R DL media (it's the only good one), and burn at 2.4x for best results.
  9. The Guides section has useful information about using ImgBurn. Your original DVDs (single and dual layer) may have protection, and ImgBurn doesn't read protected discs. We can't help you with that, so you'll have to search/ask somewhere else about that. Discs that aren't protected can be perfectly read with ImgBurn in Read mode. If you have any doubts about using ImgBurn we'll be glad to help you

    ide help

    Download Memtest Pre-Compiled Bootable ISO and burn to a CD/DVD?R (CD-RW/DVD?RW also work) and boot the computer with this disc inside your DVD drive (no need to connect the HDs). Let it run at least one full pass and see if any errors come up. Also, when you get a chance to enter BIOS setup, make sure all IDE ports are set to Auto (for auto-detecting HDs settings) and if there's a S.M.A.R.T. option, enable it. Have you tried hooking your HDs to your second IDE port to see if they're recognized there? Maybe we can help more if you give us more information
  11. If you're trying to burn a Xbox 360 game, you must use DVD+R DL media (Verbatim is the only good one in this category) and layer break at sector 1913760. Booktyping to DVD-ROM is also important, but your burner must support doing it. If you're in doubt, please post the log from ImgBurn, which can be found in Help/ImgBurn logs.
  12. When Output is set to Device, the button's caption is Write. When Output is set to Image File, the button's caption is Build.
  13. In Advanced/Restrictions/ISO9660 tab, enable Allow More Than 8 Directory Levels
  14. OK, follow these steps: make a folder (e.g. C:\WINXP) and, using Windows Explorer, copy all the contents of your CD to that folder download and extract wxpboot.bin from this file: wxpboot.zip open ImgBurn, switch to Build mode and, in the 'Output' menu, choose 'Device' if you want to burn to media or 'Image File' if you want to save to an ISO image on your HD click the 'Browse for a folder' icon and add your C:\WINXP folder (you can also drag/drop it) in the 'Options' tab, change File System to ISO9660 + Joliet and enable Recurse Subdirectories (it's enabled by default) go to the 'Bootable Disc' tab, enable 'Make Image Bootable', select 'Emulation Type: None (Custom)', click the folder icon and select the wxpboot.bin file you've extracted earlier, and change the Sectors To Load field from 1 to 4 (this is very important!) go back to the 'Information' tab, click the 'Calculate' button and, when ImgBurn asks if you're trying to build an Operating System installation disc, answer Yes and then Yes again at the next prompt (alternatively you can also answer No to the first prompt and Yes to the second prompt). More info about ISO9660 and Joliet click the big Write/Build button, re-confirm the Yes/Yes (or No/Yes) you did above, enter any label you want and click OK.
  15. The word "flatulence" made me remember this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nny412n0Z-U
  16. Do you already have a bootable Windows XP Service Pack 2 CD and want to make a copy of it? Or do you want to make a bootable Windows XP Service Pack 2 from another Windows XP CD (bootable or not)?
  17. You can only booktype DVD+R(W) single/dual layer media. Notice that even if you try with Verbatim DVD+R DL media, your drive may need a firmware upgrade to allow/support booktyping/bitsetting. By the way, are you trying to backup your God of War II DVD9? If I recall correctly, you can shrink it to DVD5...
  18. From ImgBurn's complete changelog, v2.1.0.0 section: Added: An alternative 'Padded' MD5 calculation for when burning + verifying an image on DVD+R media where the drive automatically pads the image so the last sector is divisible by 16.
  19. With ImgBurn in Write mode and a blank media inserted on your drive, could you copy and paste the information shown on the right side of ImgBurn's window? Also, while you're at it, please go to Tools, then 'Filter Driver Load Order', click the Clipboard button and paste here. By the way, do you have Alcohol 120% installed? If you have enabled its 'Ignore Media Type' function, it'll make every program think that your media is a DVD-ROM.
  20. What do you mean by "ImgBurn will not recognise the drive as dual layer"? With ImgBurn in Write mode and a blank dual layer inside your drive, please copy and paste here the information shown on the right side of ImgBurn's window.
  21. ImgBurn doesn't read protected discs, such as commercial movie DVDs.
  22. What's your drive's firmware version? The latest is DE04 and can be found here.
  23. Dual layer offers better quality because it offers more space for video/audio data, but the content has to be authored to take advantage of this. ImgBurn is just a burning program, so it doesn't convert nor changes the quality of the content/data to be burnt. Since your shortfilm is only 1.3 GB, you can safely burn it to a single layer DVD?R, as such discs can hold 4.38 GiB (4.7 GB) of data.
  24. IsoBuster, UltraISO/MagicISO, even WinRAR, are programs able to extract files from ISO images. You could also install Daemon Tools, mount the ISO image to its virtual DVD-ROM drive and copy the files over. The Nero guide you posted only re-creates the DVD-Video file structure, so, if doing that way works for you, it means your ISO image is somehow bad/corrupted, since ImgBurn doesn't modify any data when burning from an ISO image. By the way, ImgBurn's Build mode does the same as Nero and also generated DVD-Video compliant DVDs as soon as you add the VIDEO_TS folder to your build.
  25. Those are probably protected DVDs, and ImgBurn doesn't read protected DVDs. The ones you were able to copy before weren't protected, so that's why it worked.
