Hi All,

What's the disc capacity for each side of Dual Layer Disc? I think is 4.2GB on each sides but on the DVD Spec marked as 9GB.

Thanks,

Paul

any side of a DVD9 can be 4269998080 byte in size.
But if you use opposite scan, the second layer need to be smaller then the first, so, if your first layer is 4000000000, total max size can be 8000000000, not more.
