Re: HD_BURN



Just for the record and not let people fall to wrong expectations. HD_BURN has nothing to do with Double Layer. HD_BURN was offered with single-layer units as well. HD_BURN is a hack to record double as much data on CD-R(!). It's achieved in two ways: smaller pits and different data encoding scheme. HD_BURN media can be played only in HD_BURN recorder unit and DVD units with modified(!) firmware. It won't play in "any" DVD reader.


Thanks for the information, the only recorder I have which offers HD_BURN also offers DL DVD capability,
^^ ??? You mentioned it was Optorite DD1203. According to www.optorite.com it's not a DL capable unit. I mean it can surely play dual-layer DVDs just like *any* other DVD unit, but it doesn't say that it can *record* Double Layer media.

Will DL DVD-R be supported at some point in the future,

Will there be DL DVD-R? As of *today* DL exists in DVD+R context only. "Exists" means "it can be delivered to you." A.
