Xplorer uprade?
I was just wondering if there was any chance that the Xplorer addon might be upgraded now or in the future? The latest, and future releases of AjaXplorer have a number of new features that would be r...

When i posted for the config, i just discovered it (i was like : why not try, i have nothing to lose) :)
After tweaking the config in Xplorer 5.0, i discovered that there actually is a function to import the config from 3.2.4 to 4.0 (Ajaxplorer versions, meaning 4.2 to 5.0 for the Readynas), similar to the update feature implemented directly in ajaxplorer (which must be used, ajaxplorer is up to the 4.0.4 version instead of the 4.0 one, which is the base of Xplorer 5.0), both settings are located in settings - action - action.updater
The issue with PHP filesize was that PHP, at least in 32 bit environnement, encodes the filesize with 31 bits, meaning that filesizes over 2GB are always false (there is a tweak to use the 32nd bit to increase the filesize to 4GB).
What i wrote in another thread is that it doesn't matter when i'm moving files in the same repository, but each time the filesize was used (copy, download...), there was an error.
With the new version and it's new config system, the AllowRealSizeProbing feature (which uses the filesize function of the system, instead of the PHP function) finally works for me, and i finally get all my filesizes over 2GB correctly.
Now that everything works correctly, i just regret that the copy/move in another repository doesn't work with remote repositories (basically the ftp servers of my family), i still have to use my computer to do file transfers between my NAS and my brother's NAS.
