First, I want to know what software you used to burn dvd, what video formats you have burned, the model of the DVD Player,
Dual layer DVDs can be played on all DVD players. If it's not playing on yours, it could mean that there could be something wrong with either the disc or your player
No, it only reads HDDVD's.

DVD-SuperMulti Dual Layer
Dual-layer DVDs are the optimal type of DVD to use on a multi-drive DVD. Dual-layer DVDs are preferred due to the amount of storage capacity they contain.
The dual layer burner supports DVD-DL discs, dual layer DVDs with just under 9GB of storage space.
Maybe. Dual layers just means it can read 2 layers of a disc.
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.
All CDs carry a maximum of up to 750MB. DVDs carry a maximum of about 4.7GB, going up to about 9GB for dual-layer discs. HD-DVDs carry a maximum of 15GB, going up to 30GB for dual-layer discs.
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.
