  • Rendering an 6GB file as one file

    Posted by Karl Bennion on July 17, 2009 at 5:56 pm

    I’m trying to render a movie file as an .AVI file that is almost 6GB in size. After I render it I want to encode it as flash for a website and need to get it to render a one file. Currently it splits at 3.99GB and puts the remainder in a second …01 file. Is there anyway to constrain it to render as one file.

    My experience has been the the higher quality I render it before the flash conversion the better it looks on the website. I’m using the following parameters.

    Audio: 48,000 Hz, 16 Bit, Stereo, PCM Uncompressed.
    Video: 29.97 fps, 720×480, Lower field first.
    Pixel Aspect Ratio: 0.909. OpenDML compatible.
    NTSC DV video files compatible with Sony Video Capture.

    Rendering as Video for Windows (*.AVI)

    If your file splits at 3.99 GB, it means that your harddisk is formatted as FAT32. You have to change this to NTSF, which allows larger files.
    You can change this without the need to reformat your disk and without any loss of data.

    If you are working under Windows XP:
    Go to your DOS box and type Convert X:/FS:NTFS

    (X stands for the letter of the disk!!).
