2 GB is a JVM limit it's related to Integer.MAX_VALUE

It' not well known and bug in code are everywhere.

MC is not written in java so those are irrelevant

AFAIK the java runtime is only used to display blu ray menus from full disc rips. I'm not sure Blu Ray menus are even supported on Linux at the moment?  In any case, the parts of MC that deal with ordinary file playback aren't written in Java.

Can you play a file larger than 2GB?

[mattkhan]

Yes

Can you play a file larger than 2GB?

Yes. I do so every day (almost every video file I play is larger than 2GB, and I watch video most days).

It's extremely well known amongst developers (but bugs are common, yes). Computerland has moved to 64 bits quite some time ago, raising that limit from 2 GB to 8 EB (Long.MaxValue = 2^63 = 4,294,967,296 GB). The practical limit is a bit lower, but it's so high as to not matter anymore. Even the 32-bit version of MC will play files larger than 2^32 bits.

What DSD256 files are you streaming as an example?

What DSD256 files are you streaming as an example?

What does that have to do with the thread title?

[bahringe]

When streaming DSD256 greater than 2gb , playback abruptly stops. Please share what dsd256 files you are streaming successfully.

We were mostly talking about video, which can easily reach tens of GB. I don't use MC for audio, and Streaming in particular is a bit different than playing local files, so it is possible you found a bug or limitation. Though I've seen posts by users of DSD256 and even DSD512 and the issue hasn't been mentioned before. A 5.1 DSD512 file needs 500MB per minute, so it's over 2GB in just 4 minutes (talk about overkill...)
