In article , Ruel Smith says...

Any version shipped with the drive should support all the features of the
drive. It usually does, anyway...

No it doesn't hance the updates which not only update recognised drives
but also media. Also one of the 6.x.x.x updates added dual layer
support AFAIR.

Although I've never installed Nero Express from OEM CD's, since I have a
perfectly good working copy of Nero 6.X (complete), I have installed bundled
Roxio software and I've never had a drive that offered a feature that the
bundled software didn't support. If the drive usually does 8X or 16X when it
came out, the bundled Media Creator always supported it. Same way with Dual
Layer. Maybe LiteOn is cheap about it? I have a LiteOn 1673 dual layer DVD,
but it's on a Linux system, so I never tried the bundled software.


The Nero 6.6.0.6 Express that came with my BenQ 1625 supports dual
layer. All builds of Nero since 6.1.-something have had dual-layer
support. There should be a dialogue box at the bottom right of the
main window for selecting single or dual-layer projects. It might
have defaulted to single-layer.

I've got a Lite-On DVD burner installed in my system. It's the 1633S
model, I think. I'm using Nero OEM suite to burn DVD's. The drive supports
dvd+r dl disks. When I go to create a dvd video, Nero Express only will
recognize it as a standard disk, 4.37 GB instead of the 8.35 GB or what
ever it's supposed to be. Any ideas?

Thanks

Figures.

As I said elsewhere in this thread, the crippled Nero Express that
comes with a dual-layer burner WILL do dual-layer, make sure it's
SELECTED as dual-layer in the options, and when you go to "recorder"
in the menu make sure yur burner is selected instead of generic.
