Film-sized DVDs blanks?

luckat · 2007-12-13 12:04:35

Is it possible to buy DVD blanks that fit a film - 7.5GB or whatever it is?

They're called dual layer dvds. You'll need a recorder capable of burning them

Ah, thanks. And those DVD recorders wouldn't be the normal computer ones, right?

Most dvd rw drive in the last few years are dual layer, and usually will say it on the drive. If it is to copy a movie you want you might try dvd shrink and nero, as the dual layers are not that cheap. This is only of course if you are copying a dvd you own for your own use as anything else would be against the law.
