Hi All,
Does anyone make blanks that are longer than 120min? All the blanks i`ve seen are 120 min. 4.7 gig. Themovie i want to burn is around 7gig, and longer than 120min.
Thanks,
Bob

There are these double-layer DVDs.
Not sure if you can burn continuous
9.4 GB to it though. Might be more like
having two 4.7 GB. You also need
burner that can handle it.

Bob, check your DVD player/recorder. Mine records at different "speeds" much like a VCR so I can get up to 6 hours recording time on one DVD disc. I think what it is actually doing is shrinking the file size of the recording, so you will get some loss of quality. I notice no real difference between the 2-hour and 3-hour settings.
