If your burner software is up-to-date, it should immediately let you know it can't burn the blank due to format incompatibility.
They certainly do do DVD-R DL here's some

Last timer I was in HKG I got some.

Having said that, DVD+R DL seems to be more compatible with players.

Then you discover that most computer owners can't read DL disks anyway
If you have a DVD-ROM drive it certainly should read them, that's how I view mine on a pc!
