is it right?

ok
another question
can the SS being outdated or something like this?
I mean can there be a situation that I have SS in my ISO but it's not good and I should patch it with better/newer SS file?

sorry for the many questions, but I really need to know this
so if I don't do my own dumps my ISO can have wrong/outdated SS file?
if so how can I check it and where can I find a right SS file for my game?

you cant.
that is the problem.you can test the iso with all three programs and the ss checker.they could all tell you the iso is good.
even after that there is a chance that its bad.

i guess what im saying is i dont trust down loaded games of any kind from any place.
I know,i know you guys dont need to give me crap about it.
that is just the way i do things.
every game i backup is from a in hand orig.
that dont mean that you cant.if you do i would check with all 3 programs and the ss checker.then
keep your fingers crossed.

although i have a kreon drive, i use xbox backup creator 2.6 for everything. i rip the game, check the image for stealth check, and burn the game on my pioneer burner. xbc works fine if you have an iso, try it at least...

you can replace the SS on a game, but I would never connect a console that's played a game with corrected SS to Live.

You can get hold of them from somwhere (do a google :)) but i tend to do my own rips, and as cofree says you can just re-rip them til you get a good one then...
