I'm trying to record a 1-hour show, and my file size exceeds 2G.

I read (in the MJpeg docs) that the avi file size limit is 2G.  But I've also 
read (in mplayer docs) that it's 4G.

What is the maximum file size for an avi file?

Is this a limit of MJpeg or of avilib?

Also, when I try to record in movtar format, lavrec keeps recording (well, the 
numbers keep counting up on the console), but the file size stops increasing 
at 2G.

My kernel is 2.4.20, and I'm using ext3 (ext2 + journal) filesystem, so I 
think I should be able to handle >2G files on the filesystem.

Any suggestions how I could record this?

I've used ...%02d.ext as the filename, of course; now I'm trying:
lavrec...--max-file-size 1900M ...%02d.avi

But when I try to turn this into a VCD I've got a concern:  I'm not sure how 
i'm going to merge this into one file prior to converting if I can't use avi 
files longer than 2G.
Well, if this records into 2 files, I'll see what comes next.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks a lot,

Karl Pizzolatto
