probably just variable type issue - number less than zero

Opened input file for reading: ../firefly-rk3288_sdk_git.tar.gz Opened output file for writing: firefly-rk3288_sdk_git.tar.recovered Found error at byte -394639277 in input stream Found good data at byte -395313152 in input stream Total decompressed output = -334166016 bytes

In [2]: 2**32 -394639277 Out[2]: 3900328019

very good utility for (re)downloading files from chinese baidu.com site. thanks a lot !!

Thanks for the patch. I'll try to give it a look in the next couple months as I'm swamped with work at present, but this looks straightforward.
