Using fread with a large file

When trying to read a a very large file (16GB) into an array with a character size of each element of 1 byte and an array of size 720*576 and using LFS then working with the array and reading the next batch of numbers untill the end of file is reached a probelm occours after the 6,888,499,200 th byte is reached in the file, could this be some sort of limit on the fread function in C
