the path "media/pi/pi" memorystick formatted fat file system.
fat filesystem has limit on filesize of 4gb.
can either format usb-stick ext4 or ntfs both supports files larger 4gb.
if format ext4 not able use on windows easily.
if format ntfs work windows, might need manually mount in raspbian. ( never tried myself )
