First off, a calrification: I am talking about a "regular" DL: disk, not a Blu-Ray disk.

The capacity printed on the disk is 8.5 Gb, but some of this goes to overheads and formatting information. The useable space is more like 8.2 Gb, and can vary depending on the data being stored, e.g. movies versus data.

8.5 GB raw, but closer to 8.1-8.3 usable after formatting, etc.

So far, there isn't a double-sided Blu-Ray disc yet. But a double-layered disc can hold up a maximum of 50 GB (5 times more than a double-layered DVD)

Would an ISO file larger than 4.7Gb burn onto a dual layer disc using a standard computer DVD writer?

A single-sided, single layer DVD can hold 4.7GB of data, whereas a single-sided, dual-layer can hold 8.5GB. Double-sided, single-layer holds 9.4GB and double-sided, dual-layer holds 17.1GB. So anyone of these combinations can hold a 4.7 ISO image although the single-sided, single-layer may be a tight fit. I would use the single-sided, dual-layer and you won't have any problem. An ISO is simply an exact duplicate of someting (like a Linux operating system) so you will be ok. Hope this helps.
