Hi

yes, I was about to reply the same.

Does it happen for any record size, even 10 sec for example ?

But unfortunately, this is an AVI restriction : filesize in the 
riffheader is limited to 32 bits. Maybe there's an "enhanced" avi spec 
somewhere, but I'm not sure it will be supported by most players ?

For now, you can try to record with png and max png compression to limit 
file size ; also, don't use x2 zoomed resolution in Hatari, this will 
waste avi size for nothing, it's more efficient to use x2 zooming in 
your video player later.
