[vdr] Re: merge vdr files.
Le 01/16/2004 07:06 PM, Peter Funk a joliment écrit :
On traditional Unices it was impossible to write a single file larger
than 2 GB. It might be that on certain distributions the utility
program 'cat' is compiled without the so called "large file support"
necessary to write files larger than 2 GB without a overflowing file
pointer. I must admit that I didn't have Slackware 9 on any of my
Linux boxes so I can't check this now. This also depends on the
filesystem used: AFAIR ext2 has also the 2GB limitation, where
reiserfs, ext3 and so on allow large files.
Merging a recording with less than 2 GB should work though.
There is no more such a limit.
Kernel documentation ext2.txt says :
##########
Filesystem block size: 1kB 2kB 4kB 8kB
File size limit: 16GB 256GB 2048GB 2048GB
Filesystem size limit: 2047GB 8192GB 16384GB 32768GB
##########
I've block size off 4kB, like most.
