% Hi. I would like to create an encrypted dvd. Do you think it's possible 

Interesting...


% to encrypt the .iso file with a tool like gpg or similar, then burn that 
% image on a regular DVD-R? When I need it back I will have to extract it 
% on the hard disk, decrypt it, and mount as loopback (or burn another DVD-R).

Well, you could certainly do that: create your ISO, encrypt it with gpg,
and then make an image of that and then write that image, so that your
resultant disc has a single, very very large file on it.

I don't know of any tool to do so, but it wouldn't surprise me to find
that one could mount as a loopback a decryption driver that looks
directly at the file on the disc and mount it without needing any hard
disk space.  Start with burning your encrypted file to a disc and getting
it back off and decrypted :-)
