I decided to encode (MP4/H.264/AAC) the seven hours of the inauguration that I recorded via MythTV.  Since the original transport stream is roughly 45GiB, my goal was to get it into an 8GiB size to fit onto a DL DVD-R disc.  I used HandBrake, and right before the 20 hour encode finished, it went bewm:

Muxing: this may take awhile...MP4ERROR: (m_size <= (uint64_t)0xFFFFFFFF): assert failure

Yeah, it didn't turn out right.  Should I bother trying again?

Update: Looks like there is some 4000 MiB file size limit.  Yuck.
