Re: File too large for DVD

I'm trying to burn it as an image by right clicking on the iso icon and
copying to disk (DVD).. This method has worked
several times in burning CD images. What happens when I tried burning
to DVD, a notice comes up saying the disk doesn't have
enough space. The iso is on the order of 4.45 GB and the DVD is 4.7 GB.

This was a straightforward download ---I didn't try to make any changes.

Isn't the image always considerably larger than the iso?

I don't believe so, the image should be the size it'll be when it's
burned to the disk media.
