If a dual layer DVD-R fails during the burning process using nero and i allow it to finish the writing lead out and doing the abort process would i be able to use it again?

Nope, it's a coaster now...

By writing the lead out are you wondering if you can use the second layer or whatever area of the surface that hasn't been burned yet? Unless there's some really smart new software and hardware out there I don't see that happening.

You should ask your question in the DVD recorder forum.

First off, don't use Nero for recording DL discs. I've got a dozen or so coasters using Nero. Get IMGBurn and use it for DL discs. And use Verbatim discs if you want the best results. I just tried to watch a movie recorded on a Ridata DL disc that was supposedly recorded Ok at finalization but wasn't.
