        There is a 2GB limit with the AVI format unless the OpenDML
        extensions are used and as far as I know the lav* tools are
        not OpenDML aware at this time.

        The limitation is not one of large file support but rather of
        the AVI format.

        From the yuv2lav manpage:

       -o output-file
              This  (compulsorary)  option  sets  the name of the
              file that yuv2lav will write its output to. If  the
              output  file  contains a % (e.g. file%02d.avi), the
              output will be written to multiple  files  in  case
              this  is  necessary  (file00.avi, file01.avi and so
              on).

        Use something like 

                ... | yuv2lav -o 'outfile%0d.avi' 

        and yuv2lav will create multiple files each slightly less than
        2GB.
