Duh! - switch the brain on, Anne. OK - but when I get to the burn command it tells me that it has found a dvd media, but then says the data may not fit on the disk. It goes on to say that most cds will only take 90minutes. Do I need to add anything into the command to tell it that it's a dvd?

ISTR that there is a package that adds tools for dvd writing, and that may not be installed. If that's what it needs, can you remind me of the package name?

dvd+rw-tools

This package includes the growisofs command, which can write DVDs "on the fly" without the intermediate ISO file creation.

e.g.
growisofs -speed=2 -Z /dev/dvdwriter -R -J file ...
