I have been trying to burn an ISO to a DVD and I keep getting the same error message listed below. I'm using a freeware burning program called BwgBurn. The DVD capacity is 4.7GB and the ISO is actually 5.6GB... it would seem this is a problem, but I'm not sure they make DVD's with bigger capacity?

The Error Message...

a dual layer dvd is 8.55Gb but the drive, dvd and burning software have to support it

juke09

I tried a DL disk, but still same error message. I blew $25 on them, but I suppose I needed one for this project anyways, and I'll use the others eventually.

other suggestions?

What make/model is your DVD drive? If it's only single layer it won't support dual layer discs.

Have you tried splitting the ISO over two single layer 4GB discs? This might not be possible though, depending on the contents of the file.
