What player are you using? Have you tried other players to see if they have the same problem? Can you post the code so that we can have a look (or the link where you got it)? How big is BIG? You can't expect us to help unless you provide better information.

@ddanbe - he/she said 290 meg
@IPoor - please post the code here. Google won't give me access. Ideally, zip and post the project folder.
