Rendering Issues - Is my video length too long??

Hello:
I just finished editing 3 DV tapes of footage using Sony Vegas; the footage totals 01:04:23:04 in length.
When rendering (NTSF DVD Architect wide screen; Default Audio & Dolby Stereo) the rendering "does not" stop (meaning it seemingly moves through the video render), but the last frame that is shown in the preview screen is at: 01:01:02:00, which is 3 minutes and 21 seconds short of my big finish/ending. It then moves on to the audio rendering, then it will finish the process. I go to DVD Architect and view what was rendered and it stopped on the 01:01:02:00 frame.
Do my footage need to be shorter than 1 hour?
I thought it could be 2 hours, same length as the 4.7 DVD?
Without "re-editing" out some of my footage (if my footage is too long) what can be done to remedy this? Thank you in advance.

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but I'm unaware of any restriction on how long a film can be in Vegas, perhaps the "Render Loop Region Only" box has been left checked under your render settings?
I find that I sometimes leave it checked accidentally.
Just a thought anyway.
