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.

A dual layer DVD has more space compared to a single layer DVD. Instead of holding 4.7GB, a dual layer DVD can hold over 8GB. Aside from more space, they also tend to read faster than single layer ones.

Dual Layer is a term for the DVD discs and the PS3 uses Blue Ray Discs that do not need the dual layer to hold many times the information. It was said that the Xbox 360 was not dual layer, but I can not see how it would matter unless a person wanted to try and make illegal copies
Answer: How dual layer CD drives workCheck out this website: http://computer.howstuffworks.com/cd-burner.htm The main difference between a single layer and dual layer CD is that a dual layer CD or DVD has two layers of film on which data can be written to. One layer (the bottom one) is semi-silvered so that depending on the intensity of the laser, data can be read on each surface. The laser adjusts its intensity accordingly to which layer it want to read/write from.

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.
Yes it is. At over 5GB of data, Dual Layer is the only way they can save it all on one disk.
