Most players will see the wav files and play them. That way you are not limited to time ( length of time on dvd ) and only limited to size. You can get quite a bit on a dvd. Try it with your deck. I have no problem with mine but it will play mp3 audio so it is able to pick up files. So give that a try and make a Data DVD with wav files.
