Ok, I just installed K3b and dvd+rw-tools and when I try to copy a dvd movie it says:
Code:

Checking source media...
The writer does not support writing double layer DVDs.


Is there anyway you can support that? or is it still not posible? my DVD burner have these attributes:

Internal variable speed Super Multi Write Plus drive (supports DVD -RW, +RW, -RAM):
Read: -4X DVD-R, 4X DVD-RW, 4X DVD+R, 4X DVD+RW, 8X DVD-ROM, 24X CD-ROM, 2X DVD-RAM
Write: -2.4X DVD+R, 2.4X DVD+RW, 4X DVD-R, 2X DVD-RW, 16X CD-R, 8X CD-RW, 2X DVD-RAM

The writer has to support double layer. Looks like yours doesn't, as K3B said.
The are quite a few options for copying a movie.
My preference is dvd-shrink running under wine.
Search the forum for other options, or buy a 2 layer burner. :cry:
