Hiya Sunny.  Nero won't tell me how to split my file. I do that before with 
the split command.  My issue was that I wanted to know beforehand the actual 
size of the filesystem overhead (for a splitted file).  So...both, my payload 
(actual data) + filesystem-overhead should equal about  4,482.625MiB for  
DVD+R..

No, it's not. K3b uses mkisofs to generate its images and mkisofs does not 
support udf-only filesystems.  Try to burn a 4GB file in K3b and you'll see.

You are right. 

Thanks,
