So what? At least my cards are able to grab to a mp2-stream, and these files are
getting a lot bigger then these 4GB I told before ...

of course, mp2 is not AVI but I'm sure he doesn't need to grab as *.avi

... btw: his comment sounded like his filesystem has problems
with files >2GB (which is IIRC the case with vFAT) so it doesn't
help him to use another fileformat !AVI (while I'm still not 100%
sure that even AVI has such a limit)
