It's a rough edit so the only effects are a few fades and some text.
Avid is pissing me off to no end. The client wanted it in Avid because of the industry standard, but it could have saved them alot of money and had a better product if they stuck with final cut or vegas.

Well first off I'd say, as an editor, your client should not be the one to choose on which platform you are to edit on. A final product is the result of an editors talent and not the program he uses. One thing I have learned over time while dealing with clients is to get them to be on YOUR terms or drop them. If you leave them an inch of leeway, they will push you around, especially when it comes to editing cause most clients will think they know what the hell they are talking about.
So as a tip, next time they suggest using Avid, tell them it would be more cost effective to do it on the platform of your choice, if they're not happy, let them find some other schmuck to do it for them and avoid yourself the hassle.
Now as for your problem, I'd say that your shit is simply to long to export into one big ass file. Export it in 3-4 small segments, then take those segments back into AVID, and export them into 1 big file. That might solve your problem. If not, go see the Avid forum, lol, like I said, Avid pisses me off so I don't even bother troubleshooting with that prog.
