| Actually it should work even with file sizes >4gb, since there is fixup
| code compensating for an offset wraparound.
but i suspect seeking won't be possible with such a file?

| Judging from the fact that you could 'repair' your file with -ovc copy
| -oac copy, maybe the bug only happens while (re-)encoding?
well, this workaround only works for the files that are playable and
seekable correctly by mplayer, but are cut at 1gb by ogmmerge. today i
also noticed that xine won't play the files without doing this kind of
'repair'.
| It would be cool if you could change ODML_CHUNKLEN in
| libmpdemux/muxer_avi.c to the commented out value (which should be 16MB
| per chunk), reproduce the problem with that and upload the borken file.
as soon as i have some spare time, i will try that
