Limame,
Don't you think it is important to tell us what you are using
to "open" a 4GB file?

Limame,
I do not have any knowledge of streamweaver.
People in this site know Unix commands/tools, for this reason, you may
not receive an answer to your question.
In any event, there may be somebody here that knows streamweaver.
Good luck!

Is this a 32bit/64bit issue? What operating system version and application was used to create the file, and what version and application is trying to open it?
