Drop ISO. Use UDF. ISO has 4GiB file size limit. You won't be able to create 
an ISO image in any way, whatsoever (under any system, whatsoever).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO9660#The_2_GiB_.28or_4_GiB_depending_on_implementation.29_file_size_limit

UDF does not have such a limit:

Just un-tick "ISO" and tick "generate UDF structures" in the "Burn" dialogue.
