Description Oliver Joos 2011-01-11 13:36:00 UTC 
This overflow occurs after downloading a single DVD. Looks like it counts the bytes with an unsigned integer. It should use and display a long integer (64 bit).

This problem has been brought up in http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/26571/

I didn't find any overflow issues. Looking at the brainstorm link made me think this is about not having an SI prefix 'tera'. I've added that now.

Please reopen, if this is not the case.

Reopening. This is actually overflowing on 32-bit architectures. I'll commit a fix tonight.
