Can someone help me?
It's an odd error and shouldn't happen as far as I read.

Is it important to use Verbatim DVDs? I read a lot that those DVDs are better. Is Phillips also okay?

Always get quality DVD media.
Verbatim is the golden standard.
You will have to patch all your ISOs and you will have to burn XGD3 games with a burner that is compatible with the Burner Max Payload tool.
Regarding region, most 360 games are Region free, ABGX can check this for you.
Try and get your games in the region that the console was released in, you can try RF or other region games but your mileage may vary.

So Phillips DVDs are no good?
I checked th game and dvd with ABGX but there was nothing wrong. Sonic Unleashed is a XGD2 Game, how can i burn a XGD3 game then? Also isn't ABGX patching the game already? How can I do that?
Your mileage may vary.
Burned it at 2.4x speed?
ABGX auto patches a game if it needs to, if it doesn't do that, it either doesn't need patching or is patched.
Burn XGD2 and XGD3 with IMGBurn.
Tutorial on how to patch with ABGX... I have written a very detailed tut on GBAtemp, a little google work will help you find the results you need.

I used that guide, but I'll read yours as well. Maybe that'll help...

Sooooooo.... I just burned two Dvds on different PCs and burners and they also don't work. I used your guide with the same options etc. I'll flash the drive again maybe it'll change I don't know. But it's not my burner or pc or dvds, as far as I know everything is alright as far as the Programs say...

I reflashed the drive and I'm still at the point where I were before, it's not working. Any ideas?
Well yeh thx, but in case the disc drive has an issue I would buy new dvds for nothing... It's kinda waste of money... I'll see maybe I still have one of those disks if not I don't know what else to do than buying I guess...
See if the drive reads and plays a real DVD game, if so, then drive is ok and most likely its the media, or burn settings.
Real DVD game? Like an original 360 game?
Settings or burner can't be the issue In my case, as far as I know, like already said, I check everything

Yea like a real game disc. I remember in the past trying different brand media and having troubles also. Verbatim was the one media that always worked. Another option is RGH modding it, but that would require some soldering of a few wires to the motherboard. But after you RGH it, no more burning disc, games are on a usb external hdd. Good luck.Real DVD game? Like an original 360 game?

Use Verbatim.
It's been more than a decade since I burned any disc for 360 but I never really had a coaster.

So they buy a pi5 kit for about $150 and say a 28" 4k display probably looking around $400 total

Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.

I'm designing my own entertainment cabinet for my man cave, to store all my systems, then I'm also designing a power supply/HDMI switcher so I can switch to whichever system I want, and power it also. Already picked up the cabinet board, but tinkering with my drawings before start

But yea, I have frogger arcade cabinet that I gutted and put a Pi4 then Pi5 into, but it never gets played much anymore, should sell it. Even when the kids come over, they don't want to play on it, just the xbox. TMNT and Simpson's arcade is still so fun on it, esp w 2 players.

Can't wait to see the new "stick" that can actually play Ps3 or 360 games. I know they are getting close.
