Thanks for your inquiry. The 4 gigabyte limit is imposed to maintain compatibility with all video editing programs. Some applications have problems once video files are larger than this. However, we have found that most video editing programs will allow you to import multiple files into a single project for encoding.

Alternatively, you could use a program called VirtualDub (www.virtualdub.org) to combine the files together.

To do this, simply open the first video file in the sequence in VirtualDub and then add the other video files by using the "Append AVI Segment" option under the File menu. You will also need to make sure that the video mode is set to "Direct stream copy" (under the Video menu), and the audio mode set to "Source Audio" and "Direct stream copy" (under the Audio menu).

Once you have added the files and configured the video and audio settings, you can select the "Save as AVI" option under the File menu to write the combined file to your hard drive. After VirtualDub has finished you will be able to watch the combined file in your media player software.
