Fantastic popcornmix! The files I was having trouble with load very fast now. Great job. Wish I understood how to develop.
Thanks again.

Forgive my stupidity, but how do i apply the patch?
Do i copy and paste the lines of code to lib/ffmpeg/libavformat/wtvdec.c ?
If so, what program do i use to open?
I'm using a raspberry pi running openelec. Tried going to the update section under system, to see if it would apply automatically, but it says it is already up to date. Still hangs on some .wtv files.

This problem seems to be have come back for the Helix release on Raspbmc. I had no problems before but now like the original poster, I cannot play WTV files larger than 3GB, meaning that I can only watch some of my files via Raspbmc. Is there any way the original fix for this can be re-released for Helix? Or is it possible to update/edit FFMPEG manually to workaround this problem?

I'm running Kodi Helix on a Raspberry Pi with OpenElec 5.0
This problem was fixed for me when I upgraded to Gotham - Frodo was the only one which did't work with large WTV files.
Helix plays them fine for me - I've no idea what they fixed...
