Cant go past 4.o gb even though im using 4.7?

what is the deal how do i fix this?
my quality is set to best quality

I don't quite understand the problem but here goes.
In my tests (with that particular test material) iDVD 4's Best Quality starts to really fill a DVD (i.e. to the max of 4.0 GB) only after 75 minutes of content.
With 15-75 minutes the Best Quality bitrate averaged to 5.8 Mb/s -- after that it gradually dropped to 3.1 Mb/s @ 120 minutes.
On the other hand, Best Performance was a steady 7.3 Mb/s. And what is most interesting, Best Quality's peak bitrates never exceeded that and some high action scenes were actually better with Best Performance. So it seemed that Best Quality is sometimes set to throttle the bitrate too much.
Yes, there is space up to 4.3 GB (=4.7 GB with another atrihmetic -- that 1000 vs 1024 thing, you know) on a DVD but I guess Apple chose to play it safe and leave some room, just in case.
