Default How do you tell if a BD is 25GB or 50GB?

How do you tell if a movie is on a 25gb or 50gb disc by just looking at it from the disc or case

It is on the box. I do not believe it is on the disc itself.

it's on the disc..... see the back of the disc near the hole, and see something like a codebar (that most shop scan when you buy something). if there is one bar, it's single, if there are 2, then it's double.

the codes depend on the manufacturer, so it is not the BVSS and BVDL that are important, just that there are two or one
