Set the Pool to similar like this
Pool {
Name = Disc-Full
Pool Type = Backup
Storage = File
Recycle = yes Volumes
AutoPrune = yes
Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
Maximum Volume Bytes = 4400000000 # Your requirement
Volume Retention = 10 days
Maximum Volumes = 30
LabelFormat = Full
}
As each Volume is needed it will be labeled Full0001, Full002 etc.
Only one Job will be written to the Volume so you may end up with Full0001
-- Full000N with the last one being less than the 4 GB .
You can then transfer these to DVD (You may want to use Software
Compression).
