Hopefully someone will tell me I'm wrong but last time I checked it
was impossible to write files bigger than 2GB to a DVD using Linux
unless you use ext2fs or another Unix filesystem. Even commercial
UDF DVDs split the files into 1GB chunks. Just thought I'd mention it,
might save you wasting a few discs like I did.
