Doesn't DVD2Xbox have an ACL folder for placing these kind of files in? Have you tried putting the ACL file into this folder? I've never had to do it before - but I'm pretty sure it should work.

Also, are you using the latest version of DVD2Xbox - think it's 0.6.6.

Should I enable the ACL processing ?
Yes if you want to play the game from you hard drive. No if you want to have a 1:1 copy from the DVD.

What does ACL mean and why do I need it ?
ACL means action control list and you could see it as a batch file where dvd2xbox looks for information on how it should patch the game. Dvd2xbox can patch every game individual with acl files in the form [gameID][_pal|_ntsc].acl. Take the game Riddick as example. dvd2xbox tries to determine via the eeprom if your xbox is set to PAL or NTSC (my box is set to PAL). Then it tries to load the ACL file 56550026_pal.acl (since 0.5.9). If it can't find the file it tries to load the ACL file 56550026.acl (default for 0.5.8 and previous versions). If there is no special acl file the default.acl is used. The default.acl contains all known generic patches like media check 1+2 and the fatx detection.

Why do I have to bother with the damn acl files as all other filerippers don't need them ?
You don't have to if you only want the generic patches which are similar to all rippers but don't help for all games. ACL is a gift to the community to extend the capabilities of dvd2xbox without relying on the author.

It's all on the official dvd2xbox website:
