Ah! You should take a look at both the dvdrw device (for writing to DVDs) and at amvault (for copying dumps to other volumes). In 3.2, amvault will be able to do exactly what you want - pluck the fulls off vtapes and put them on DVDs. Then you can adjust your vtape size to something that fits your backup schedule better.
