vdub tells me the wav file may be corrupted at that point, giving sample numbers.

Any workarounds for this?

I'm assuming this is not a standards limit for wav files as several other players can read all the way to the end of each of these files.

No, this is not a w2k limit ...

... there is a standards limit for canonical wav files in the files RIFF header.

4bytes @offset4 define the file-length

these 4bytes are defined as signed-long, so there is a max-file-length of 2147483640byte.

you can find a more detailed description here.

Not that I know! AFAIK VDub as well as AVISynth are only able to process canonical wav files.
