i’ve been burning all of my DVD’s and i’d rather not shrink them but instead make exact copies. i’ve copied them to my pc as an \*.iso image and most are at around the 8GB mark. so i’ve purchase some dual layer dvds and have made a few. i was thinking that my xbox (non 360) would play them but it does not and i knew before hand that my dvd player would not either. does anyone know of an inexpensive dvd player that will playback dual layer dvds? ---

They should work fine but maybe they’re burning wrong. What are you burning with? A friend of mine burns DL DVDs and they work in his normal player. ---

What are you burning with? A friend of mine burns DL DVDs and they work in his normal player. DVD Decrypter to burn iso image to pc and then Nero to burn to blank DL DVD. ---

I make backup copies of all my movies with clonedvd and anydvd. Never had a problem and have been thru 4 different dvd players. my kids seem to think $30 disney dvd’s are frisbee’s and dvd players are parking garages for matchbox cars. ---

most likely not the burner or software. most likely it’s the dvd player you’re using or the media being used. ---
