error when exporting DV type 2 using Kino

When exporting an 8 minute or so video to DV type 2 using Kino, I got this odd error: riff.cc:596: In function "virtual bool RIFFFile::ReadChunk(int, void*, off_t)": "read( fd, data, entry.length > data_len ? data_len : entry.length )" evaluated to -1 riff.cc:596: errno: 22 (Invalid argument) Could not save AVI file /media/video_edit/test, because an exception has occurred: riff.cc:596: In function "virtual bool RIFFFile::ReadChunk(int, void*, off_t)": "read( fd, data, entry.length > data_len ? data_len : entry.length )" evaluated to -1 riff.cc:596: errno: 22 (Invalid argument)

I found very little useful info on this error on the web, and it took a while to figure out that when I did the export to an NTFS partition, I got the error, but when I tried the same to a reiserfs partition (or ext2/ext3 for that matter), it worked...
