Is there any plans to include a time-index in an AVI file ? You can't. The time indexes are the whole problem of 2 GB limits, they're 32 bit integers and thus limited to 2 GB boundaries. > 2 GB files simply don't contain a time index. > I can load the file into avidemux (as a broken file) but without > indexing, it is PAINFULLY slow when you want to move about (and I would > prefer to do all this out of X11 anyways).

There's other tools that record to multipel 2 GB files instead of one large file, they don't have this problem. lavrec (mjpegtools) is one such example. But it records to MJPEG, not to RGB15.
