Default 8.5gb DVD's?

Hello

I just bought a new DVD recorder and it happens to be double layered. I am about to create some data DVD's for work, and had a question:

Can all computer DVD players read 8.5gb DVD's?

Thanks,

Steve

Yes; dual layer was part of the original Digital Versatile Disc spec.

Yes they can. Also if you write a dual layer video dvd, most standalone players will play those as well...
