[Dvdrtools-users] Burning a DVD with > 2GB files

[Scott Talbert]

Hi all,

I have finally been able to get my Sony DRU-500A with cdrecord-ProDVD 2.0 
which just came out recently.  (Previous versions of ProDVD and version 
0.1.2 of dvdrecord do not work for me.)

Anyway, I want to use my DVD recorder to make backups of my system.  My 
method is to tar and gzip my files, mkisofs them, and then record to DVD.  
Unfortunately, my plan caused me to run into the 2GB file size limitation 
of mkisofs (my tar.gz files are > 2GB).  So I cannot burn them to DVD.

Anyone have any ideas on how I can get around this limitation?

Thanks very much,
Scott Talbert
