Trick DVDA 2 into doing Dual Layer?

I have two programs for creating DVD's. Sonic one that came w/ my burner that does dual layer and DVDA2. Sonic won't use my AC3 files unless I upgrade and DVDA2 doesn't do dual layer. I want to wait to upgrade until this fall since I am just a hobby user. Therefore,
is there anyway to trick DVDA into doing dual layer?

I ask because of how I used to have to add data to the video dvd's since DVDA didn't do it. I did it by just preparing the dvd w/ dvda then later burning it with another program that would allow me to include the seperate data folders.

Thanks,
Carson

Thanks, even though it's not what I wanted to hear ; )

You can dupe DVDA2 into doing Dual Layer by waiting until it's asleep, then installing the DVDA3 upgrade that overwrites the pertinent files, and when it wakes up, bang!

Or--it sounds like the other program might be Nero 6 or higher--I've done that myself before upgrading.

I found the dvda2 graphic and changed it in photoshop to say DVDA 3, but that didn't work either.
