I have some files (family videos) having close to 1gb. Can you tell me if a dvd recorder (dobule layer) will be good? Im worried if everybody will be able to see it. What is the best bet?

I'm currently using a 45 dollar TEAC all format DVD recorder. There is some issue that DVD PLAYERS don't play recorded media, some will do DVD+R, some like DVD-R and some play both.
I had to add a field to my contact list as to which type to send them!

thanks. Sure a double layer is not needed for that file size, but since they are getting cheap, Im planning to get them unless there are bigger problems with them. I mean, the only difference is the size of data that the disk will hold right?

But I expect you to find that sending a double layer to friends and family to result in a better than 50% reduction in who can play it in their DVD players.
Just my advice. Buy the recorder if you want, but send out the single layer media...
