fakemail Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Hey guys, I am hoping someone can help please. I have written dual layer xbox 360 backups before without any issues using this same drive and verbatim media. same cakebox. dvd+dl. The write completes but in verify fails at 49% with a check condition. I have tried other drives. Only thing is these are laptop drives and they are supported by the Burner Max Tool. I have uswd these drives with no problems previously. I am inable to change the advanced settings though as one drive was sony optiarc other a tssp corp so it doesnt have advanced settings to try hyper burn etc. can someone help please. had many coasters following many guides. read also about clearing opc can i even do that on sony or tssp drives on laptops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrianvdh Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I have had this many times before try re flashing your firmware and do a reboot the post a log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 If it doesn't just work and you don't have the ability to enable 'Force HyperTuning', you're probably out of luck. The payload tool working and the drive being able to overturn the discs nicely are 2 very different things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fakemail Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 Adrianvdh, I will give this a shot, although I did think I had the latest firmware so wasnt sure if it would let me do an update with the same firmware. Maybe there might be a special program to do this ? I have an Optiarc AD-7580S also an TSSTcorp cant remember which model now. Lightning UK, im guessing these drives dont have the ability to Force HyperTuning. I understand that it might fail due to the disc not burning to the edge properly as it is not designed to do that. But it has burned previous dual layers these same discs fine. I am just surprised that it is failing at 49% as im guessing that is around the layer break point? Could this be something to do with selecting the optimal layer break options? Previously from what I remember the .DVD file would be used to determine the layerbreak or you would enter this manually ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 It's failing at 49% because that's the outer edge of the disc (just before the layer break) and is where the the extra available disc space is meant to be coming from. It has nothing to do with the layer break options in the program, just that the drive is being told to use more of the disc than it was designed for - and it's failing. Like I said, the tool claiming it has made the disc look bigger and the drive actually using that extra space are 2 different things. If you want to be able to use it properly / fully, buy an iHAS drive. If you don't need to burn an oversized image, don't make your blank look oversized (i.e. don't use the tool). That way the drive will work as well as it has always done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fakemail Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 Thanks a bundle mate, really appreciate your time and response, makes total sense now, didnt realise the edge of the disc was the 49% mark in verify. Looks like I will have to invest in a drive, or find someone local who can do me a favour. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
