I was copying one DVD's files to another and it kept reporting that the
origin files exceeded the DVD's capacity by about 2.8G, which was impossible
since they came from a DVD. It wouldn't get off this, so I just rebooted the
machine and the problem resolved. Odd.

Not weird at all. How much RAM does this computer have installed?

It wasn’t the blank DVD that ran out of room it was the buffer space in
your computer. your computer choked on what you tried to feed through it. You
don’t burn directly from one DVD to the other, there is a computer
somewhere in that mix, and that is where you got the needed headspace by
rebooting your machine.
