Dual Layer DVD Burner?

[Sidney]

hey

I have a dvd burner sitting around and my mate wants to buy a dual layer burner. How can I find out if its a dual layer burner or not?

It says "dvd multi recorder" on it, but I dunno if that means its dual layer.

It's an LG, i'll get a pic soon

It wont be, if it was a dual layer burner it would be well advertised and easy to find out.
