This sounds like you are trying to burn a DVD which contains a single
ISO file in its filesystem, instead of burning the ISO file to the disk!
 There is no problem burning ISO images greater than 2GB to DVDs.  I
recently burned 7GB to a double layer DVD-R.  The problem only exists
trying to put files larger than 2GB into iso9660 filesystems (which you
then want to burn to DVDs).
