Ah, I see your though, yes it makes sense, but I think xbox data is already pre-compressed and it would not make a difference of game data and random padded one.

I think JamJam is right in what he says, I found that to be the case, If the random padding is large then so will the full packed iso be.

Here's the text I found in the ISO

Code: Select all

0010 : 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  4D 49 43 52 4F 53 4F 46   ........MICROSOF
0020 : 54 2A 58 42 4F 58 2A 4D  45 44 49 41 82 87 12 00   T*XBOX*MEDIA....

and in the next sector

0010 : 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  58 42 4F 58 5F 44 56 44   ........XBOX_DVD
0020 : 5F 4C 41 59 4F 55 54 5F  54 4F 4F 4C 5F 53 49 47   _LAYOUT_TOOL_SIG
Hopefully this find is of some use.
