backup of a backup question
So i have a backup of a game i own and the orig is scratched. The backup is stealthed and everything, I still have to go through the process of using the xbox backup creator to get the .bin files and just act like it is a normal game right?

Re: backup of a backup question
if you want to backup your already backed up game, just use imgburn and copy the disc, but before burning run it thru abgx a couple of times so if it needs truncating it will be done. After that you should be good to go.

Re: backup of a backup question
so i dont need to put the stealth files in it since it is already a backup? i can do a straight copy and then check to make sure its stealth after the fact?

Re: backup of a backup question
open imgburn
create image from disc
read at 4x
run the iso thru abgx twice, incase it needs to be truncated.
then burn at 2.4x

Re: backup of a backup question
I used the abgx360 tutorial pdf to set it up and so far so good. So if everything passes in green then its stealth and ready to go as an ISO?
With imgburn, do i use include the .iso, .dvd, and .mds in the files for the DL DVD?
what is "L1 Video is zero padded" mean?
Thanks for all the help!

Re: backup of a backup question
I know how to check the ISO if it is stealth or not, but is there a way to check if the actual backup disc is stealth without making an iso, or after it has been burned?
abgx360 is all green but it added a .dvd file. If i just burn the iso, that file wont be included, will that not be stealth then?
Making a copy from a backup of halo wars and want to make sure i do it right since it is my first

Re: backup of a backup question
ok if checking a disc load it up and click disable writes obviously,
but as for the dvd file, you are supposed to burn from that in imgburn.

Re: backup of a backup question
ok, backing up a backup is a no go technically speaking. Your allowed one backup of an original. If the original gets destroyed, your out of luck legally speaking.

Re: backup of a backup question
i guess that makes sense, since if you sell something, you must destroy the backups you have. Ok, well ill trying burning with the .dvd file and ill see what happens.
