  2. NOPE DOUBLE LAYERS ARE 9.4GB

    Wrong!! Here is why!!

    Q. DVD Sizes, What is DVD-5, DVD-10, DVD-9, DVD-18 and Double Layer DVDs?

    FAQ

    Double Layer (sometimes called Dual Layer) and Double-Sided DVDs each hold more than the standard 4.7GB of a single-sided single layer DVD. Many new DVD Burners for computers burn Double-Sided and Double (or Dual) Layer DVDs. Learn more about the different DVD sizes below.

    A.

    There are four different DVD sizes:

    DVD-5 holds 4.7GB and is supported by the DVD+R/RW and DVD-R/RW formats. It is also known as Single-Sided Single Layer.

    DVD-10 holds 8.75GB and is supported by the DVD+R/RW and DVD-R/RW formats. It is also known as Double-Sided Single Layer.

    DVD-9 holds 8.5GB and is supported by the DVD+R and DVD-R formats. It is also known as Single-Sided Double Layer (sometimes called Dual Layer). The official names are DVD-R DL and DVD+R DL

    DVD-18 holds 15.9GB and is supported by the DVD+R format. It is also known as Double-Sided Double Layer (or Double-Sided Dual Layer).

    You must have a DVD Burner for your PC that will burn Double Layer and/or Double-Sided DVDs to use these different discs.

  3. you were close enough Ray - but you didn't win the leprechaun chicks panties

    :( :(

    So ur telling me that i didn't win the leprechaun chicks panties? awwwww i shouldn't have given up!! Hey but i came close!!  but chucks' no cigar!!

  4. Nice! What's that software do? Does it clean the registry to make your PC run faster? Right now I use CCleaner and don't know if that works good enough. Let me know what that software does, thanks-

    I use cCleaner too but i use it for daily cleansing of my temp files, cookies etc.  but registry mechanic i only use on occasions to fix some things that are bad or corrupted' but when your computer is scanned you need to pick and choose carefully which items ur gonna fix simply because it tends to mistake some registry's as bad sectors and deletes them thats why you have to choose the option to back up your registry in case something goes wrong....... i love it and it only messed up photoshop once.but that was a minor set back!!

  5. thanks.

    i know this may sound silly, but could you explain what dual layer means and what it means for dvd's.

    YES i know, i'm a noob

    dual layer is simply twice the size of a regular 4.7GB disc.lets say you have a 3 hour movie such as TITANIC and you want to make a back up of that movie' if you use a single layer 4.7Gig disk you will need to compress the 7.5GB's or so of TITANIC into a 4.7gb disc which means you have an ok quality copy of such movie' as for making a copy with a dual layer disk  which contains 8.5 Gigabytes of storage capacity you will be able to copy TITANIC with no quality loss at 100% quality of the original comparing to compressing it to 4.7GB's at about 45% compression rate.

    BTW

    anydvd with clonedvd will compress any dual layer disc with  satisfactory quality on a 4.7gb disc.

  6. I Agree with coknuck' but for important home videos of family try using dual layer media as it will give you perfect quality without the compression'  as for burning movies use ANYDVD and CloneDVD as those two combined work even better than DVD Shrink and DVD Decrypter' as for media i recommend VERBATIM & FUJI and i would keep away from SONY even if its my favorite all around products Manufacturer but their blank media is very suspect.
