18 min rendering

Hello y'all
Strange problem I never had before. I just completed a picture collage with sound, approximately 30 min long (in Vegas 6). Then I rendered it so that I can import it into DVD Architect and burn a DVD.
After rendering I noticed that it stopped rendering at 18+ minutes and started automatically a new redered file with the same name but just added a "01" at the end. Consequently I cannot burn/import both into DVD Architect at the same time and combine it. Does anyone have an idea what is going on or what I have to change. I saved a screen shot to see where the break in the collage is.
Thanks in advance for the help

Rendering to a FAT32 drive (which has a 4Gig file size limit)?

I'm pretty sure you mean 2 GB filesize limit.

My bad. 4 GB it is.

Nope. I mean 4 Gig.

In the FAT file system, the number of clusters per drive was limited to around 65535 because the file allocation table—the object after which the FAT file system was named—consisted of an array of 16-bit cluster numbers. With Windows® 95 OSR2, FAT32 was introduced, raising the maximum number of clusters into the millions by expanding the file allocation table to an array of 32-bit values. Note, however, that the maximum number of clusters is 0x0FFFFFFF—not the full 32-bit value of 0xFFFFFFFF. Since this is limited to a 28-bit value, programs that manipulate FAT32 file allocation tables can use the top four bits as tag bits in their internal data structures. Losing this capacity at the top end has no impact on the theoretical maximum FAT32 volume size. That’s because the FAT32 volume size is capped by the 0xFFFFFFFF maximum sector count, and at 512 bytes per sector, this results in a theoretical maximum FAT32 volume size of 2TB. (While we’re on the topic of FAT32, the maximum size of a single file is 4GB, and the maximum number of files per directory is 65535.) Long before you hit the theoretical maximum volume size, you will reach the practical limits.
