Back up Navigation DVD

I just bought a updated DVD for my navi and was wondering if anyone tried to burn a backup copy for themselves. I dont trust having one copy of anything.

My PC burns dual layer DVDs, but I've never tried it. send me your DVD and I'll give it a try for a CLS?

The Navi units are really picky about what brand of media you use as well.

Verbatim tends to be pretty high quality. I made a backup copy and got it to work about 80% of the time (other times it gave read error when car was started) I used Verbatim DL DVD+R.

Me too. Choose the right media. RiTek (RiData) or Verbatim works well.
