I'm trying to burn my mkv files (4.37gb) on to dvdr in Linux but non on the apps I've tried have managed to burn UDF file format. Any one have a clue?

Thanks!

This has been an issue for a long time:

Looks like this is now fixed

mkisofs is fairly instructive when you try burning files >4GB:

Code:
mkisofs -o ../2.iso capture002.dv
File capture002.dv is larger than 4GiB-1.
-allow-limited-size was not specified. There is no way do represent this file size. Aborting.
This size can only be represented in the UDF filesystem.
This should lead you to the answer, being:

Code:
mkisofs -allow-limited-size -udf -o ../2.iso capture002.dv
then burn with your favourite ISO burner, or cdrecord, e.g.:

Code:
cdrecord -verbose -dao -driveropts=burnfree 2.iso
The result is a DVD-R that works fine in Linux and Windows.

At least that's the idea
