    Your question makes no sense.

    A DVD-R is read as DVD-5 (single sided-single layer)_X_X_X_X_X_[small][​IMG]

    There is no available burner (to the general public) that will burn DVD-9 [single sided-dual layer]

    Will it be read as DVD-video:The same as a store bought DVD? Or will it only work with DVD-R compatable Players?

    It will be read as DVD-Video (if burned in the correct manner) but you will have to play in a DVD-R (+R) compatible player yes.
    A lot of the new models out now or in the last year or two are compatible though.

    You can check DVD Player compatibility here : http://www.dvdrhelp.com/dvdplayers

    Hope this helps ; )

    You need to enclose the files in a VIDEO_TS folder and burn as DVD ROM ISO/UDF to enable it to be read as DVD Video

    No, you dont need to use an ISO, burning as VIDEO_TS is perfectly fine.
