Then here is an iso of 4.3GB (4119 MiB), shown as iso size of 4.3GB,
free space as 4.7GB, which would obviously also be burned

So in any event no longer an issue, noting that once breasero starts the
burns it switches to MiB anyway

Title:
  Brasero thinks the capacity of a blank dvd -r is 4.3 GB when it's
  actually 4.7 GB or 4.3GiB

Status in A disc burning application for gnome 2:
  New
Status in “brasero” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Starting in 11.10 nautilus reports file (iso) size in actual GB, but
  brasero incorrectly uses  4.3 GB as the capacity of a dvd -r

  The actual numbers of a dvd -r are
  available space - 4,706,074,624 bytes/2,297,888 sectors/4.7GB/4.38GIB
  So an iso that is near the true max file size of a dvd -r, while it will fit 
, is now  rejected by brasero as being to large for the media

  Ex. - have an iso that can and has been burned to dvd -r

  Actual size - 4,691,394,560 bytes
  Nautilus/properties reports - 4.7 GB (4,691,394,560 bytes)
  Brasero shows iso size as 4.7 GB, media capacity as 4.3 GB, refuses to burn

  (as a comparison a dvd burner, ImgBurn, that just uses bytes/sectors  for 
filesize & media avaialble space shows this & will burn
  iso size - 4,691,394,560 bytes/2.290.520 sectors : dvd -r media - Free 
Sectors: 2,297,888 ; Free Space: 4,706,074,624 bytes

  K3b use GIB so it also has no problems burning the above mentioned iso

  So it would seem brasero, gnome/nautilus, ubuntu need to get on the
  same page here & brasero needs to use the same method for  both
  filesize & media capacity, either GB or GIB
