buring dual-layer dvd

[BeachNut]

I'm looking to burn to dual layer dvd. Does it matter much whether I use dvd-r or dvd+r dual layer disks regarding final playability on dvd players ? Can anyone offer any advise/recommendations for this. Thanks.

Alot of people have had Great Success with Verbatim DVD+R DL media....Do a search

I've had my DL for a couple months now with sorta mixed results. All the DL disks plays excellent on my computer in both my drives, but of the two players I have it's not so good. My Sony player won't play DL at all, none of them. My Magnavox DVR has played about 1/2 of the Verbatim +DL I've tried in it and the rest of them only about 1/2 way through then.... nothing. locked up. Like I said, they all play excellent in computer. My players are old and outdated I suppose.

Good luck.

Since you appear to be interested in burning dvd-video to the disks, it matters very much. Unless you want to start a collection of very expensive coasters, forget the -rdl and use +rdl. Even then, it would be a good idea to stick with Verbatim if you're coaster-phobic. The last suggestion would be to only use ImgBurn or PgcEdit-ImgBurn to set the layer break and burn to disk.
