I don't think its the sheer filesize. What filetype are these according to "file <filename.ts>"?
"data"
My vote is codec support.
I doubt that. ts is a fairly standard encoding, and both VLC and mplayer will open the files - they just don't play well. I tested this with some pretty heavy load in the background, so can't say for sure that they wouldn't play.
As I said, I know avidemux can handle even larger .ts files; the question there is if the 32b version can handle them.
I've managed to find some lower res versions, so that takes care of the problem, but the question remains. I ordered new RAM today.
