The problem with doing that is that it would break other programs that can't handle AVIs >2GB (due to limitations in the original AVI specification). The "RIFF chunking", properly called OpenDML, is a standard method of creating large AVI files that's been around for several years now; if TMpgEnc can't handle that, then frankly it's broken. (It's also possible that transcode's OpenDML support is broken, but MPlayer at least has no trouble with large AVIs produced by transcode, so I'd tend to blame TMpgEnc.) --Andrew Church [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://achurch.org/
