Just check in case u have DVD burner. You may same some money in buying external hard disk by writing the data on DVDs.

Dual Layer recording allows DVD-R and DVD+R discs to store significantly more data, up to 8.5 Gigabytes per disc, compared with 4.7 Gigabytes for single-layer discs. DVD-R DL was developed for the DVD Forum by Pioneer Corporation, DVD+R DL was developed for the DVD+RW Alliance by Sony.

You can by dual layer DVDs, assuming you have Dual-Layer burner. They hold twice as much. Otherwise, use a burning utility that allows you to compress the data.

Yep, you need 3rd party software to play DVD's in WinXP.  You need to be a lot more specific with what you mean by "not working."

your dvd burner only  supports dvd +r discs so get dvd +r discs

What type of disc did you use? In case it was DVD+R, not all DVD players read this format!\nFirst check what kind of discs the players support.

Look over the list here, sort by rating, get one of the better drives with more reviews. \nhttp://www.videohelp.com/dvdwriters\n\nNote: you want a drive that supports "DL" - DVD-R DL, DVD+R DL, for example.  "DL" means dual layer.  Generally, the higher the number preceding it, the better.  For example, a 4X DVD-R DL will write a DVD twice as fast as a 2X DVD-R DL.

There isn't a particular kind of internal connection between dvd burners.  They all use IDE.  So as long as it says "internal" on the box, it should work.

First of all try this method. Connect the USB DVD burner before you boot your machine. Then make sure it is displayed on device manager. And then install the latest Nero product (7.5.9), (but I think even nero 6.0 will work) and install the software that came along with the Burner. This will solve your problem

I am not the best at this stuff but look at sites giving multiregional hacks or codes.I did my Philips DVP3500 and it worked great. Get the free ones, some people try to charge. Just put in make and model of DVD followed by "hack" or "multinational code"Good luck.

The easiest way is to use something like DVD Shrink which will rip and then compress Dual Layer (DVD-9, 8.6GB) discs to a Single Layer DVD. \n\nOtherwise the best quality way is to use DVD Decrypter and then DVD Rebuilder.

DVD+R's are NOT re-writeable. only DVD RW's are ReWriteable.\nthe most compatable with standalone players are DVD-R however you can only burn a DVD type that your burner supports so i'd check your DVD burner first.

Depends on your DVDR drive`s speed.\nI usually use 8x DVD-R but record at 4x or 6x ,unless the disc is high quality.

nero has issues with dolby stereo, have you seen the warning about it when you use nero? There is a plug-in on the nero site
