How to overburn a DVD with Nero 6?

Hi,

In the Preferences menu, I only find options for CDs, not DVDs.
Why?

But it only speaks of CD overburning there.
Not on mine.

the expert features, when selecting a type of DVD. Says Enable DVD overburning. Right underneath Enable Disc At once CD Overburning, and above Enable generation of short leadout.

Let's redo this from start then :
I'm using Nero 6.3.1.6
I start Nero
Go to the file menu
Then to Preferences...
It brings me to a window with 9 tabs. It's in the General Tab at this point.
Right over this tab is the Expert Features tab.
When I click on it, I get a window showing these options :
Do not eject the disk after the burn is complete
Enable overburn Disk-at-once burning (read the notes below)
Maximum CD length :
__ min  __ sec  __ frm

Then the notes...

Then again 3 options :
Clear achive bits of written files during ISO refresh
Enable all supported recorder formats for the Image Recorder
Enable NeroNet support


I see nowhere mention of DVD


Did you select a dvd type?

What do you mean?
Create a new project, in Nero Burning Rom, and selecct the DVD type DVD ISO, DVD-Rom, DVD-UDF etc.

Oh.. This!
Yes, I've done this : New DVD-ROM (ISO), no multisession

But you were right : I downloaded the latest version and I got the options needed.

One last question then : Do you know of any way to overburn to a size greater than 4600MB? (I need 14 more Mb :( )

Thanks
Nver actually done over burning on DVD, and I'll say it depends on your media to how much you can overburn safely too.

Well, Nero asks for an interger smaller than 4600, so I suppose this limitation comes from the software.

Thanks for the help.
