I think I responded to a similar query earlier

- From browsing the growisofs source code I came across this .....K3B uses
growisofs...

Revision 5.3

<snip>
- - refuse to burn id session starts to close to or beyond 4GB limit
  (limitation of Linux isofs implementation)
<snip>

I thought this would indicate a fix (but maybe not).

I would try

growisofs -dvd-compat -Z <DVD Device>=<iso name>

from the CLI

NB K3B is not always completely sane about passing stuff to the
underlying command tools... and the wodim based stuff is slightly
different in operation to the original cdrecord stuff which K3B expects.
