Burning Large Files to DVD
Posted on 2012-12-24
I have created some video projects that are larger than will fit on a standard DVD. I have a DVD burner that can burn to Blu Ray disks, but since many of the people I share with don't have Blu Ray players, I always burn to normal DVDs. Someone mentioned that there are "dual layer DVD" disks available that will hold my larger projects. I am running Windows 7, and use either NERO or Cyberlink for authoring disks. So I've got a couple of questions:
1. Can dual layer DVDs play on regular DVD players, or would they need special players?
2. Can I burn to dual layer DVDs with my Blu Ray burner, or will my normal DVD burner write to a dual layer disk?
3. What would you recommend I do?
Thanks,
Phil

1. Unless the DVD player is really old, It should play on normal DVD Players.
2. You can burn Dual layer DVDs in your Blu Ray burner. I recommend Verbatim Dual Layer.
3. I suggest using IMGBurn http://www.imgburn.com/

yes they should play on a standard DVD player. Store bought movies are actually on a dual layer disk...
Yes you should be able to burn a dual layer disk with your normal DVD burner. Nero should do the trick for you.
Another option would be to go ahead and burn the way you normally would with a Blu-ray or even a dual layer, then use the NERO Re-Code to compress the video down to a standard (non-dual layer) DVD.

Here is a good site about Dual Layer Burning http://www.burnworld.net/howto/articles/intro-to-dual-layer.htm
Dual Layer dvd's should help, but you should verify your DVD burner will burn double layer. I suggest checking your DVD model# and cheack the manufacturer's specs.
Double Layer is 8.5 Gb Any larger than that and you should just get a 16 or 32 gig flash drive.
