If it's really 8,5 GB you can't burn it on a DVD-9.
8.5 GB on DVDs means 8500 MB and not 8704 MB (normally 1GB = 1024 MB but not on DVDs: 1GB = 1000 MB ).
DVD-9 = 8500 MB = 8,30078 GB maximum but
8124 MB = 7,93359 GB is the normal size for uncritical burning for a DVD-R. At the end of the DVD-R you will have a little space to prevent burning errors.

Chris,
I've downloaded and checked your DVD. Your DVD has 7,44 GB not 8,5 GB - see picture below:
