Apparently, while being written, the image is expanded to the next multiple of 16k (might be even 32k or 64k). A single block on DVDs is 2048 bytes, I don't remember how big a group is (data needs to be written in groups due to error correction codes).
I was thinking of something in that line, though I wonder why I hadn't noticed before. I don't know how many blocks have to be written at a time either. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
