Thank you in advance,

A couple of minor points ...

Writing a dual layer DVD takes 45 minutes - not 10 minutes. You're looking at 3 days of continuous burning. The drive will need some cool down time.

Dual layers are too expensive at this time (~ 1.00 US / disk)

You could build a DVD server with 4 (or more) drives. Should make the process a lot faster. Fairly cheap if you get an old used P4, shouldn't cost more than $200 US.

Tools? No, I just do it by hand using K3B. Wastes a lot of time.

I backup lots of video to DVDs, I've currently got 800 DVDS. IT'S A FRIKIN NIGHTMARE!

John
