Dual-Layer vs. Single-Layer DVDs (Picture Quality)?

The scruffiest looking smuggler who can herd a nerfHello gundarks. I recently downloaded and burned myself a copy of Adywan's 30th Anniversary reconstruction of Empire Strikes Back, which at the moment, is available mainly for single-layer DVDs. I was hoping that there would be an option to download a dual-layer version, which is capable of higher bitrates. At the moment, I am looking at this purely from a technical perspective. The single-layer version of Adywan's ESB looks great, but I made me think, "would this DVD benefit that much from a higher bitrate, which is possible on a dual-layer DVD?". I welcome any input on this topic, maybe some comparison images even.

Ointment FlyYou should probably put this in the ESB reconstruction thread.

I think there would be a small but significant increase in the picture quality. (TV's Frink is right about where this should be discussed.) I seem to remember that Adywan has said that a dual-layer might happen at some point, but I would not count on it being any time soon. No one can post pictures of something that has not been released yet, and I am not sure you would notice a massive difference from screenshots anyway.

Jedi KnightIts not Dual Layer but is better looking than the dual layer Vintage edition, from what i have been told. Never seen it myself.
