I am trying to burn a 5gb file onto a dual layer dvd. Its a .mpg file, however, gnomebaker is giving me hassles. i have burned dual layer dvd with it before, but it keeps failing this time, here is the output of the failure:
Executing 'mkisofs -gui -V GnomeBaker data disk -A GnomeBaker -p Unknown -iso-level 3 -l -r -hide-rr-moved -J -joliet-long -graft-points --path-list /tmp/GnomeBaker-randy/gnomebaker-5K3WDV | builtin_dd of=/dev/sr0 obs=32k seek=0'
I: -input-charset not specified, using utf-8 (detected in locale settings)
File /home/randy/Desktop/homeMovie.x264.mpg is larger than 4GiB-1.
-allow-limited-size was not specified. There is no way do represent this file size. Aborting.
:-( write failed: Input/output error
So how do i 'represent this file size' in order to get this to burn? I just want it on the disc as a .mpg, so I can watch on my ps3, if i have to convert to an ISO i can, but I have burned many .mpg like this before, but normally smaller and onto single layer dvds.
Any help is appreciated.

try to burn it with UDF filesystem
ISO can't burn files over 2/4 GiB (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_9660#T … size_limit)

As takedown said, UDF can do it. Anyway, in the article he linked, it is said that iso level 3 works with files bigger than 4Gb.
mkisofs (the REAL one from cdrtools, as opposed to genisoimage from cdrkit) has iso level 3 support (ok, I know: genisoimage can also do it but with a workaround - so why bother?).
So basically what you need is:
growisofs -speed=X -Z /dev/your/burner -V"VOLUMENAME" -v -R -r -iso-level 3 yourbigmpegfile.mpg
if you want an ISO image before burning, then:
mkisofs -v -R -r -iso-level 3 -o bigiso.iso yourbigmpegfile.mpg
and then
growisofs -speed=X -Z /dev/your/burner=bigiso.iso
