Image size 4.37gb

I had a strange problem today. Today i backed up my Biohazard Outbreak to hd via RNM to a iso instead of split Gi images. However, when the copying had finished, the image size was 4.37gb, which i then burnt to disc with no problems, yet a 4.7gb dvd-r can only burn up to 4.36gb of data so i thought this was weird.

When i've attempted to burn files i.e a compliation disc with the same size, as above i get error messages saying no enough space on target media. Has anyone else experienced this?

P.S Outbreak is really good, especially if your a fan of the resident evil games.

This may be similar to how CDRWin makes the images.

In CDRWin when you have a game thats close to 630 or so mb, and make a .bin and .cue file out of it. The .bin file winds up being something like 720mb. Its basically just because of the data that CDRWin needs to burn an image of that sort.

I figure maybe RNM is doing this same sort of thing. While other images made by other recording software may not.
