A regular dvd burn can be up to 1 hr 45mins. If you are trying to burn anything larger than that you have to use software/hardware that can do double sided burns.
I use ReelDVD to burn my dvds.

Im not sure how you are converting it to dvd format but those numbers are really wrong.
This is my method:
I use: Adobe Premiere with dvd encoding to make change the .avi files to .m2v (video) and .wav (sound) files. Then I take the files and import them into ReelDvd to create the storyboard for the menus and chapters.
I bought ReelDvd, but Im sure you could find it somewhere in the newsgroups or IRC.
Here is a link to it so you will know what to search for: <a href="http://www.sonic.com/products/Professional.../quicklook.aspx" target="_blank">http://www.sonic.com/products/Professional.../quicklook.aspx (http://www.sonic.com/products/Professional/ReelDVD/quicklook.aspx)</a>
