Just look, here is example:
fbsd# growisofs -Z /dev/cd0 -R -J -udf -iso-level 3 -dry-run somefile
Executing 'mkisofs -R -J -udf -iso-level 3 somefile | builtin_dd
of=/dev/pass0 obs=32k seek=0'
mkisofs: Value too large to be stored in data type. File somefile is
too large - ignoring
I'm not talking about restriction of DVD size, but restriction to
filesize wchich I want to place on DVD:
fbsd# cat somefile | split -b 2G
fbsd# rm somefile
fbsd# ls -lh
total 4590848
-rw-r--r-- 1 root operator 2,0G 5 gru 09:18 xaa
-rw-r--r-- 1 root operator 2,0G 5 gru 09:24 xab
-rw-r--r-- 1 root operator 385M 5 gru 09:26 xac
fbsd# growisofs -v -Z /dev/cd0 -R -J -udf -dry-run ./
Executing 'mkisofs -v -R -J -udf ./ | builtin_dd of=/dev/pass0
obs=32k seek=0'
mkisofs 2.01 (i386-unknown-freebsd7.0)

When I split that file there are no errors and DVD is 4,3GB size.
