  • Sorenson Squeeze 4.5 won’t compress entire file

    Posted by Phillip Van west on March 8, 2007 at 7:02 pm

    I am trying to compress a 121-minute QT file for DVD using MPEG-2. Only 56 minutes of the file get compressed.

    Also, when I check the “constrain file size” box, this is ignored and I always end up with too big a file.

    Anyone know what’s going on here?

    Looks like all large QT files (over ~4 GB) stop at 56:48.
    Seems as though there’s a 4GB file limit on Quicktime recognition. NOT GOOD.
