Default .ISO won't fit on a DVD-R

Whats the biggest capacity single sided DVD-R you can buy ?

I've got an .iso that won't fit on a regular 4.7GB DVD-R...

.iso = 4,600,430 KB

I've tried overburn and it won't work.

The actual useable space you have available on a 4.7GB DVD-R is 4.37GB - No option of Dual layer?

Yeah, my other DVD burner is dual layer (laptop)

I was just curious I suppose. Its an unusal sized .iso which seems intended for a single layer DVD-R

DVDShrink re-encodes video, doesn't it ?

Whereas this is a windows application , in ISO format.
