Thanks for that. I don't have any DVD+RW media handy to be able to grab that information. The easiest number to remember is probably 4700000000 bytes. If we're under that, we should be covered OK for all the common DVD formats, just like 680000000 bytes is a safe max for normal CD ISO images. Does anybody out there have a DL DVD drive and media yet? The maximum LBA on DVD+R DL media would also be a useful piece of information... -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK.
