Still having problems burning DVDs

Ok,

Thanks to the help of earlier posts (a couple of weeks ago),
using "kldload 
atapicam" now allows for the scsi ioctls on my IDE
CD/DVD burner.

However, when I do the following:

growisofs -Z /dev/cd0 -dvd-video
/usr/local/dvds/whereisGod1.iso

I get this output:
Executing 'mkisofs -dvd-video
/usr/local/dvds/whereisGod1.iso | builtin_dd 
of=/dev/pass0 obs=32k seek=0'
mkisofs: Value too large to be stored in data type. 
File /usr/local/dvds/whereisGod1.iso is too large -
ignoring
mkisofs: Unable to make a DVD-Video image.
:-( write failed: Input/output error


Now, what is causing this?  The command I'm using is right
off of the handbook 
for creating DVD video:  
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO
8859-1/books/handbook/creating-dvds.html

And the size of this file is:

-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  4317872128 Nov 21 16:30
whereisGod1.iso


That's slightly smaller than the 4.7 gb that the DVD+R says
it will hold.  
Please keep in mind that this iso file I've made is from
doing:

cp /dev/acd0 /usr/local/dvds/whereisGod1.iso

You should use the alternate syntax which takes a
pre-mastered DVD image:

growisofs -dvd-compat -Z
/dev/cd0=/usr/local/dvds/whereisGod1.iso

Notice how above it's trying to run mkisofs to create the
image.
You've supposedly already got the image, so no need to
master.

See '18.7.3 Burning Data DVDs'.

I think it should be:

dd if=/dev/acd0 of=/usr/local/dvds/whereisGod1.iso bs=2048

Check whether the output of "file whereisGod1.iso"
is "ISO 9660 CD-ROM
filesystem data" or similar.
