I am having trouble getting a large (2.7 gigs) file onto a DVD.
Brasero warns me that such a large file is only supported by the 3rd
standard for iso9660...but then won't burn it even after I say OK.
It ejects the DVD saying an error has occurred.
Does anybody have a solution or suggestions ??

One suggestion, yep :-)
Try to make an ISO image for the files you want to dump into the DVD and
burn the ISO instead. Regardless the results, read Brasero logs, maybe
you find something of interest in them.

I had a situation long ago where I couldn't burn large
video files. I might have been working on Windows
- but I recall UDF format solved the problem.

You're right - UDF is the way to go, now if only somebody would
tell Brasero

I would try that but I don't have the file anymore...I burned it to a
DVD using a trial version of NeroLinux.
Brasero logs were of no use BTW, they talked of an unexpected error just
before ejecting the DVD.

I told you so because by burning an ISO image usually enforces the right
parameters to be used by Brasero, like support for big files (UDF) ;-)

You got only "a one line" error?

I wouldn't have thought that to get a file onto DVD would require it
to be first converted to an ISO
Should not UDF be available for all files??

I don't have the error logs now, but as I recall the error was one
line in the log...because Brasero then ejected the DVD.

Me neither.

Yes, I told you a trick as a start point to debug your issue. Of course,
Brasero should not have failed but we first need to know what and why
hapened, right? So we need more clues to connect the points in the right
form :-)
- If burning an ISO image also fails, then the problem may not have any
relation to UDF.
- If burning an ISO image succeeds, then it can be something wrong at
Brasero that makes it fail to detect the right extensions to use.

Now I recall, you can also try to burn the DVD from command line. I'm
sure you will be able to find the right syntax to get the burning job
done by googling a bit around.
