From what I can raad, the 4GB file limit for SMB seems to come from Samba using SMB 2 compatibility. You should disable SMB 2 for security anyway, but it's possible the SMB client still messes up.

In that case, if you're entering a hostname manually somewhere, try replacing smb:// with cifs://. That should force it to use a modern standard that's capable of 4GB+ files.
