I thought I fixed that, but the test case was only 4.9GB.

Maybe there's another limit I don't know about. Yeah, there is - 400GB.

man xorriso, under the -compliance option:
"iso_9660_level="number chooses level 1 with ECMA-119 names of the form
8.3 and -file_size_limit<=4g - 1, or level 2 with ECMA-119 names up to
length 32 and the same file_size_limit, or level 3 with ECMA-119
names up to length 32 and -file_size_limit >= 400g -200k. If
necessary -file_size_limit gets adjusted.

Maybe the option in the xorriso command needs to be changed from
-iso-limit 3
to
-compliance iso_9660_level=3


The line looks like this, around line 1100 or 1200,
in /usr/bin/refractasnapshot or refractasnapshot-gui

xorriso -as mkisofs -r -J -joliet-long -l -iso-level 3 ${isohybrid_opt} \

Please let me know if you try that.
Other option is to exclude a bunch of your data and maybe back it up in a
tarball if you want it available for the live system.
