anyone had any joy using DL dvd+r media to backup movies? I haven't tried myself yet as the discs are too pricey to create coasters, is there any reliable methods yet that will create discs that will play in standalone dvd players?

I haven't seen too much chatter about dual layer.

I just bought my dual layer DVD burner. Didn't get it in the mail yet, but I'm going to give it a try. I'll still be able to burn my old 4.7GB DVD's, so there isn't much to lose.

At $9.99-$11.99 a disc, it really isn't saving you much to burn movies when you could just buy yourself a backup copy of the movie in the store for the same price or cheaper.

Once they begin making spindles of DVD+R DL's....then the fun will begin. At an affordable price, that is. If you are willing to deal with changing discs, you can burn the same quality movie onto 2 DVD+R's for about $1.

Thanks for the input guys, I figured it would be some time before the bumps are smoothed out of DL.

dvd decrypter is set up to rip/burn DL movies now, and i think it always has been. Its just been implemented a little better recently

DVD Lab Pro is up to beta 16 and is almost ready for launch. Finally. Pro has a feature that lets you position the layer break. Similar to the way you would set a chapter point. I don't think other programs give you any options to position the layer break. Fill me in if I'm wrong on this. I think Nero just has an abatrary split point in about the middle of the set of .vobs. If you had 6 GB file size you would get a layer break at 3 GB. At least that is what I'm hearing. I'm too cheap to check for myself. I agree with steeljay about the prices. Just buy the original instead.
