Rep:
I don't know the filesystem in DVD's, but I know that when I burn any data file bigger than 2GB, my Nero DVD burning program in Windows tells me that files over 2GB on a DVD can only be read by a Windows system. I'm not sure if this is because Nero is burning it for Windows only, or if this is a DVD file system limitation that is universal.
