Next question >is how many DVD-(>5) drives are around? We have several DVD drives here, but >all are the 4+ gig variety... 1) A DVD can 'handle' 2 layers, a lens can focus the beam on each one. This multi-layers system exists since the begining of the DVD (2 layers possibles on 2 sides possibles) 2) A DVD-movie has often 2 faces written (one for 4:3 format and one for 16:9), if you look at the file system i'll see 4+GB on each side the problem is that you've to return de DVD manually ... (I've nerver seen double layers yet ...)
