mattie711 Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 I am new to this. I have had great success in burning 2 hour movies with the Verbatims. I have some longer moview that use a layer break. I bought DL verbs but then noticed that it said to use only with DL hardware. Will I need to get a new burner in order to burn on the double layer DVD's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevdriver Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Mattie, what make and model of burner are you using now? You will need a burner that is capable of DL burning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattie711 Posted February 21, 2007 Author Share Posted February 21, 2007 I am using a Phillips DVD +- R RW. It came pre-installed in my Dell PC I purchase in 09/05. It says DVD 8701 on properties. I looked on the philips website but could not find that product, I do not have the user manual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
