Avidemux won't open 2,8GB movie

[Vegard|drageV <vegardlr@gmail.com>]

Avidemux works fine with smaller movies (typically 700MB), but gives
an errormessage in the commandwindow:


Images stat:___________Max memory consumed (MB)     : 0

Is there a way to solve this problem? I googled around, but found little help. 

Debian sarge, kernel 2.4.27-2-686
