Media, burner and game compatibility

[whackawookie]

any help on my previous question anyone. just got a nme-360 chip also does anyone know about those as well

sorry I have not made a samsung compatibility list because from what ive heard the samsung rom will read pretty much any burn from any burner just so long as the ss is inserted right. If this isnt the case then I can start a samsun list but it will rely on everyone else's information because i dont have a sammy

finally i can reply!
Anyways can i change my hitachi to a samsung as the on n off thing is a huge detterent for me!
And im stuck with a hitachi!

im praying that sometime soon a chip or firmware mod will come out that would make the games boot quickly like they did with the xbox 1.

Anyone had any luck with a NEC 3500AG burner (Firmware 2.19)? Burned a few games to RiDisc Xtreme +R DL and not one works with my Hitachi (firmware upgrade went no problems).
Burned another to a Verbatim +R DL and that doesn't work either.
Is it time to get a Pioneer 111 or does the NEC work and i'm missing something completely.

The Samsung is obviously better. You could buy and Samsung drive and put your Hitachi's key on it, but really seems like more trouble that it's worth. Just use the double eject method. If you used the last GaryOPA Xtreme v1.2 7in1 firmware it's installed and it works for me on a Hitachi. Each time I'd get open tray I'd double tap eject and the game loaded in 5 seconds or less.

After lots of testing i found out that pioneer burner(111) and Imation media works best for my xbox 360(pal dutch 46d)

Verbatim and ritek work but you need trick(hdd or eject)

Imation is alway's a direct boot,game dasn't matter.(as long as burnt whit pioneer and clone cd)

I did get some games working whit nec 3500(dead or alive(only one working good) , burnout ,oblivion ,and farcry)farcry stopped loading furter in game and the rest where slowwwwwwwwwwwww loading and freezing when you did get furter in game.

Ok,

I installed back to original firmware and applyed latest birdy flash (with hitatchi time-out fix)

Now all my backups boot ASAP from dash, no tricks or whatever needed!

So i would recommand to all to repatch your x360 with latest birdy or garyopa patch where the hitatchi fix is included.

(Still need a pioneer to burn, but cheaper media is not a problem anymore! )

i retested all my backups, all booted ASAP from dash (can't compare to samsung drive, but i heard it is almost as fast as the samsuings now in bootup)
