CanK3b burn 16x DVDr/w double sided media?

Want to try 16x DVDr/w in k3b...

Does it recognize the double-sided media and write to
it?
Before I buy anything!

if you mean dual-layer media, it certainly will. if you really mean double-side media, well, i have no idea (actually i didn't even know it existed...)
also, k3b is a frontend for cdrecord and dvd+rw-tools. so check the latter for double-side media support.

I really don't know where I got the term double-sided!  I did indeed mean dual-layer and I appreciate your kind reply!!!!

fyi, from k3b.org website :

dvd+rw-tools - The DVD+RW-Tools are used to burn and format DVD+R(W) and DVD-R(W) media. For DVD+R Double Layer burning version >= 5.20.4.10.8 is required.

from extra repo, dvd+rw-tools is > 6.0. so you get it.
