Does 2.0 support file size over 2Gb ?
At least Beehive complains about insufficient disk space when trying to download a 4Gb file...

Yes it does, however very few filesystems do (and then, even less over 4GB)...

Applications won't magically support large files, they have to use the new DOS API (or f.ex. libnix 64bit versions of certain functions) to accomplish that.

What is the current status of MLDonkey, MPlayer, MEncoder?

Can I download a movie longer than 2 GB, and then play and edit such a file?

Or new versions of the programs are needed? (Well, I see that Fab already published a new one...)

About mplayer/mencoder, i added dos64 support since february or so. So any public version of mplayer i released since that date supports dos64 (see history).

Of course, it requires some 64bits capable filesystem, which is not the case of ffs/sfs. Should work on ext2 (ntfs?) and smbfs tho.
