    Just been going through some stickys on this forum and noticed some do need updating. For example, this one:

    https://www.videohelp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=139869

    You can NOT just copy a DVD to a recordable DVD like copy a CD Audio because most DVDs are both encrypted and many won't fit on a recordable DVD cause there are only 4.38 GB recordable DVD±R/Ws(called single layer DVD-5) while many newer DVD-Videos are on 8 GB DVDs(called dual layer DVD-9). No DVD Writer supports the dual layer DVD-9 format and there are no plans for any such writers either (a DVD-9 is basicly two pressed plastic DVD-5s pressed together, they are not burned).
