My USB is of NTFS and can take in huge files. This is good, but I cannot play them on a DVD player.
This question has been resolved. You may still add an answer if you think you can add something to the discussion though.

Create a fat32 partition dedicated to your video files. I did this to my external drive and it’s working great. I have a 160 drive with 100GB ntfs and 60GB fat32.
Most Thumb Drives are formatted fat32.
The maximum possible size for a file on a FAT32 volume is 4 GB.
Unless I want to write to them using a Mac, I reformat to NTFS, eliminating this problem. My Daughter’s Mac will not write to NTFS.
Per default, Windows won’t allow you to create a partition larger than 32GB. However, this is an artificial limit, which you can avoid. See this article: How To Format A Large Hard Drive With Either FAT Or FAT32
Your issue seems to be that you can not store files larger than 4GB on a FAT32 formatted drive/partition. There is no way to circumvent this limit, but there is a hack to get around it: you can split your files. Try G-Split or one of the tools reviewed here:

Good luck!
To sum up the other comments, you can’t. Unless your DVD can read formats other than FAT32, you’re stuck with the limitation.
