Very much depends on the capabilities of the drive. Most drives will tell you in the manual. Or you can look up the drive on the manufacturer's website and check there.

Some drives will have a DVD+/-DL on the front, if it says "DL" it can handle dual layers.

This really depends. This specific capability is usually written out on the specs list of your drive. You can also check the burn speeds list - if anything there has the suffix "DL", that would mean "dual layer" - for example, if it says 8X DVD-R/DL - that means it burns in 8X speed for DVD-R, and also 8X in Dual Layer mode.My DVD burner, an external DVD burner by DIGISTOR(digistor.com) - burns 8X in single layer and 6X in dual layer. Your drive has to specify if it can do dual layer or not. There is no automatic distinction. Check the manufacturer's website or the literature that came with your drive.


What does dual layer allow you to do?

Dual layered DVDs allow you to burn twice as much data to the disk as a single layer (8.5GB as opposed to 4.7GB). However, it may not be convenient, but burning to 2 separate DVDs is probably a better solution. To burn dual layered DVDs you need to have all sorts of unneccesary garbage, including disks that cost about $3 each.
