Ok so i have had ImgBurn for a while, lovely program (thank you Lightning). I am 'backing-up' some very large software packages i.e. 5-8GB, i am using Intenso DVD+R DL which i think is RICOHJPN if i am correct using a Samsung (TSSTcorp CDDVDDW SH-S223Q). Obviously i can read any DL disc i burn but unless it is placed in a DL drive, it is unreadable by conventional DVD readers.
Now then, i have been reading up on DL compatability (Im going to buy Verbatim from now on!) and i want the make these DL discs read on any DVD drive (if the big software companies can do it so can we, right?? RIGHT!!??) So i have come to a conclusion that i needed to change the booktype to DVD-ROM not DVD, and i was then met by the wall of reality, i had just wasted another DL disc (2 now) and im not rich either.
So i urge someone to straighten me out with FACT.......HOW IN THE WORLD do i get an 8.5GB DL to read on a standard crappy DVD drive.....
If you get back to me i may spare the lives of thoses in my way later tonight.
Many thanks,
ReAp3r.
I will add that i have been searching for hours on the net and come up trumps, i looked at every guide on this forum with the words Double Layer in it and still nothing.
So if i have missed the plain and simple answer please be gentle, i am tired o_O
