How do you plan on generating the rar? The tools for that probably have options to explore for maximum file/media size. I would suggest that the options you have given on your command line have included all the files in your current directory.

Can you past the command you have used?



You can achieve a rough & ready process with split

Use this to split on a number of bytes, then concatenate the files together (in the right order) to recreate the original:-

Code:
compress avicii.mp3
split -b 5m avicii.mp3.Z avicii

Obviously, adjust 5m to a suitable size. The files created will be called avicii.aa, avicii.ab, etc.

Now binary ftp the files and use cat or the DOS equivalent type to join them back up. You can open a .Z file with tools such as WinZip. So either:-
Code:
cat avicii.aa avicii.ab > avicii.mp3.Z

or:-
Code:
type avicii.aa avicii.ab > avicii.mp3.Z


Does this solve your issue? My workaround is not as neat as using the tools to create a rar file though.

Robin

mp3cut

MP3CUT(1)							   User Command 							 MP3CUT(1)

NAME

       mp3cut - cut and assemble MP3 files

SYNOPSIS

       mp3cut  [ -o outputfile ] [ -T title ] [ -A artist ] [ -N album-name ] [ -t [hh:]mm:ss[+ms]-[hh:]mm:ss[+ms] ] mp3file [[ -t ...	] mp3file1
       ...]

DESCRIPTION

       The mp3cut utility cuts and assembles MP3 files according to the time specifications given on the command line. The mp3 output  is  written
       to  the	outputfile.  If  no outputfile is given on the command-line, the name for the outputfile is created from the name of the first mp3
       file by adding output.mp3 at the end. The -t flag specifies which part of the mp3 file following it will be extracted.

OPTIONS

       -o outputfile
	      Specify where the output is to be written.

       -T title
	      Specify the title ID3 tag for the output file.

       -A artist
	      Specify the artist ID3 tag for the output file.

       -N album-name
	      Specify the album name ID3 tag for the output file.

       -t [hh:]mm:ss[+ms]-[hh:]mm:ss[+ms]
	      Specify which part of the following mp3file will be included in the output file.

		    hh	= hours
		    mm	= minutes
		    ss	= seconds
		    ms	= milliseconds

	      If the starting time is omitted, 00:00:00+00 is used as starting time. If the ending time is omitted, the end of	the  MP3  file	is
	      used as ending time.

EXAMPLES

       mp3cut -o output.mp3 -t 23:42+500-01:23:42+750 input.mp3
	      Cut  the	segment  from  23  minutes,  42  seconds  and 500 milliseconds to 1 hour, 23 minutes, 42 seconds and 750 milliseconds from
	      input.mp3 and write the output to output.mp3.

       mp3cut -t 00:01-00:02 input1.mp3 -t -15:23 input2.mp3 -t 9:87+500- input3.mp3
	      Append the segments from input1.mp3, input2.mp3 and input3.mp3 and write the output to input1.output.mp3.
