Umm, since most of your good video DVDs are dual layer, I don't see the problem. Are you asking about DVD+R DL?

theoretically yes,

but please report back to us


However i don't think there is a dual layer rewritable (+rw) out yet. so if you use a +r dual layer disc you won't be able to erase and update the disc (ie add more songs to that disc). considering the cost of DL discs, that could be expensive in the long run. (You have to close the session for the disc to be able to be read i think).

Not theoretically, it's already been reported back at mbworld that they work. Well, we discussed it at least.
