I have an mpg file of a TV show that's 5Gb. Is this the correct procedure to burn it to a dual layer DVD+R?
1. Use ImgBurn to create ISO file
2. Use ImgBurn to burn the ISO onto the disc
I've never burned DVD9 before.
Try StreamFab Downloader and download from Netflix, Amazon, Youtube! Or Try DVDFab and copy Blu-rays! or rip iTunes movies!

Yes it's OK. It's also possible to skip step #1 and use ImgBurn to burn the files directly without creating an ISO. However, you forgot this:
0. Buy Verbatim DVD+R DL discs to use.
If you use any other type of DL disc, you are likely to have problems.
Finally, you do understand that steps only involve making a data disc and you are not making DVD format video by simply burning a 5 GB file to DL media, right? That may be exactly what you want to do, but I just want to be sure you understand that DVDs have to be authored before they are burned and you seem to be talking about simply burning a file to a data disc. -
jamn89,
Thank you for the quick response. Not only did you explain it but you did it in a very easy to understand manner. Greatly appreciated.
Step 0. was done, waiting for Newegg to deliver.
Plus I do understand about data vs DVD format disc. The mpg file is in HD so I didn't want to down-rez to DVD resolution. My intended audience will just watch it on their PC.
