Sony 400 DVD Player and Dual Layer DVD+R discs: I have not found anywhere that lists yea or nay whether the Sony DVD jukebox plays dual layer discs...anyone know for certain?

I know of at least one instance where a Sony DVD Jukebox machine DID play a burned dual-layer disk that wouldn't play on my Toshiba. Probably not much help- could have been a fluke, but it is true.

Yes , it has both, you can play any DVD/Blue Ray Disc or even Divx, and same apply to the USB port, where you can play mostly any kind of files

OK I found this on the operating manual and I do not believe it will play mp3 on DVD disc. From the manual: Discs that cannot be played* BDs with cartridge* BDXLs* DVD-RAMs* HD DVDs* DVD Audio discs* PHOTO CDs* Data part of CD-Extras* Super VCDs* Audio material side on DualDiscs* A disc recorded in a color system otherthan NTSC, such as PAL (this playerconforms to the NTSC color system).

Thank you for your question this machine will copy dual layer disc. DVD, CD or Mdisc DVD. Please make sure the master disc is not copy protected because this unit will not copy copy protected disc.

Probably not. The owner's manual doesn't even acknowledge the existence of dual-layer discs.

Mine plays DVDs better than any DVD player. Return your unit and get another one.

We have played DVD+R and DVD-R dual layer on this unit with no problems. We usually record 16x media at 4x for best quality.

I do not know if it will play these disks. I have never tried to play any type of audio disc on it, only out of region DVDs is all I use it for.

Yes, it will play CDs, as well as burned CDs on either CD-R or CD-RW discs. Also, if you have any dvd-audio discs, it will play those as well. It does not have the compatibility to play SACD discs, which is strange since Sony developed the format. Also, if you have any movies that have been burned onto DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-RW, DVD+RW, or DVD+DL discs, it will play those as well. Hope that helps.

It will play both, HOWEVER! It will not play Bluray movies without purchasing additional software for Bluray playback because Sony corporation owns the Bluray standard. I do not buy Bluray nor do I buy Sony products for that reason. I use free VLC player for DVD movies.

Yes, it records to DVD+R, DVD-R, DVD+RW and DVD-RW disks. NO...It cannot record to dual layer disks, however it has 6 recording modes (1 to 6 hours) Refer to following links for more information: (1) USER MANUAL: http://www.magnavox.com/product/download.php?model=MDR537H (2) MAGNAVOX FORUM AT AVS: http://www.avsforum.com/t/940657/magnavox-537-535-533-515-513-2160a-2160-2080-philips-3576-3575

Yes. However, there exist two models of this DVD RW. When you purchase this model, select correct model - Double Layered RW which only allows you to use LightScribe.For other questions? feel free to ask. Even though I am not a seller, I will be able to answer a lot because I am a computer science research person.

As far as I know my Mac (which is down in CA currently) can read any disk I put in , I doubt it is double layer. Frankly I do not think I have ever run into double layer DVDs. Check the Apple help line, they may advise you. Sorry I am not more help.

I inadvertently clicked "Yes." The specs say "yes" to triple and quad layer, but I don't know about the Sony disks specifically.

I have never used Dual Layer discs. The unit has been working fine with the inexpensive office store discs that we use.
