Since DVD-10 is simply a 2 sided DVD, you would create 2 different projects - one project for side 1, and a second project for side 2, then just burn each side.

So yes, you could do this with DVDA 1.

However, if you really mean double layer or dual layer, then no, DVDA 1 cannot support this, but DVDA 3 does.

Thanks for your input, Scot! Why that a 4.7G DVD blank disc claims to hold 2 hour video but I can only put in 75 minutes of video created from Vegas 4? Is the DVD media used by movies (2 hours plus bonus materials) double or dual layers?

You can put 2 hours of video on a DVD, but you need to lower your average bit rate down to around 4,800 Kbps - this will also lower the video quality some, but depending on what you have, it might be acceptable. Use the bitrate calculator at: http://www.videohelp.com/calc.htm for other times/rates.

Most Hollywood DVD's are DVD-9's, they also use very good (and very expensive) MPEG encoders and probably more than 2 pass encoding.
