When record it divided into several 4GB big .ts files

I am newbie here, first DVB Dream Rocks! I tried to record a HD movie into .ts format, the record process was fine. But after it finished I found 3 .ts files, the first 2 are 4GB big and the third is 2GB. I guess the record process created a new .ts file once the current one is 4GB big. Can I do something so DD can put it into only one file?

Thanks!

Go into Preferences->Record and change "Max File Size (for split)" value to whatever you want (0 is for no split at all, I believe).
You need to use File System which does not have such file size limitations (FAT32 will not allow you to create files larger then 4GB). You need NTFS.
