Should I use DL disks for all movies or can I use DVD +R for movies less than 2 hours? If I can use DVD +R disc's, which are the best top 3? Thank you.
Hello. Ok Mr. OldJoe are you saying I don't have to use a d/L disc. I am understanding your answer to steviegt as no.. even if its over 2hrs.. I just burnt up one burner dvd drive and really dont want to burn this new one up so soon.. I am using verbatim disc now.. When I called best buy they lied to me and said they didnt have any.. well when I went to buy my new burner they had alot ... really upset me ..You can use S/L for most all movies.
If you want to spend the extra money ...use D/L.
If not then S/L are fine.
Verbatim and Ty S/L are very high quality and are easily obtainable at about $.40 per disc. For D/L.....Verbatim at about $2 per disc.

accepted sir... and one more thing if i use a D/L disc is there anything special I need to do to get it started to burn..??? or just like I usually do when backing up my S/L dvd disc's???You never have to use Verbatim +R DL (made in Singapore) if you don't want to, but those are the only DL anyone should really be using at the moment. The only problem is that when a movie is large and you compress it to a single layer disc, you may notice the quality of your backup isn't very good (especially on large televisions).
For the record, I didn't issue a warning for where you posted, but rather what you posted. I went to the trouble of trying to help you, and you turn around and insult my efforts? I don't appreciate that at all. I spend a lot of time and energy trying to help people here--and I don't get paid for it (I don't work for Slysoft). That said, apology accepted.
If you don't understand something, you need to explain exactly what you don't understand so that I and others can help you further. I think you'll notice I am quite willing to help people with Anydvd/Clonedvd issues.
I, unlike others, do not have an excellent "bedside manner" (so I apologize if I seem gruff; I'm really not in person).
This is up to personal preference, but I find with many of my movies I don't have to transcode to fit them on a SL disc - sometimes ripping the movie only fits onto a SL back-up, sometimes ripping the movie only and deleting additional audio streams works too. I only consider DL if I can't fit the movie onto SL without transcoding.Should I use DL disks for all movies or can I use DVD +R for movies less than 2 hours?

I cried when I told him I went on forum and really messed up..
Then I'm very sorry. I honestly don't intend to make anyone cry. That's the last thing I would ever want to make someone do. Very sorry
Don't let the nice demeaner fool you... clubbing baby seals is a national passtime where he comes from.
