Double Layer DVD Recording

With the same technology that underpins Holly- wood-style DVD-Videos, Double Layer (DL) discs are compatible with most consumer set-top DVD players and computer DVD-ROM drives.

On one DVD+R9 DL disc, you’ll be able to store up to four hours of MPEG-2 video, sixteen hours of VHS- quality video or increase the video bit rate for higher quality movies. And with 8.5GB of storage space on a single DL disc, they’re ideal for archiving and backup applications, and could even be used as replacement for tape in some instances.

Now you have the tools to make high-impact, pro- fessional quality DVD videos, conveniently make sys- tem backups and preserve all of your memories for the future.
