4GB file limit
Posted by Chris on May 1, 2006 at 9:20 amWould anyone have any idea why I can’t create files over 4Gb from Premiere Pro 2, even though all my drives are NTFS formatted?
(4Gb Ram / P3.2 Dual Core x2 / FIRE GL V7100)
Thanks

May 1, 2006 at 11:53 amWhat kind (codec) of file are you trying to create? Some codecs have a 2 or 4 GB file size limits regardless of the file system..

May 2, 2006 at 7:40 amHi Mike – It’s a Quicktime movie I need to create. I’m using tried various codecs – Animation / png / you name it.
Wasn’t aware this was a problem with Quicktime…?
Thanks

May 2, 2006 at 9:22 pmI’ve written 12 GB QuickTime MJPEG-B files onto NTFS disks using QT 5 on Windows NT. I don’t it’s the codec that will impose a limit on file size; that’s usually the job of the file system or file type. Are you sure the disk you’re writing to is NTFS? Does premiere read and/or write other media files over 4 GB?
