I have experienced the same issue. Currently I don't have any other DVD type nor Flash/USB.
Maybe I will try an older version or wait a bit for the fixed.
I just wanted to check how my machine supports FreeBSD, so nothing it's nothing urgent.

I have found this bug report recently, but earlier I have started this as a topic on the FreeBSD forum, if you need some details for reference:

It has been inevitable for a long time that we will eventually not be able to fit on a standard DVD.  The best suggestion I can provide is to write the DVD image to a flash drive larger than 4.7GB.
