The issue is already described here: #1419
It will likely be a while until we can properly fix this and multiple people ran into this issue and thus ObsPy now raises a proper exception message with instructions on how to still read these files if it encounters this problem.
Error message is:
"ObsPy can currently not directly read mini-SEED files that are larger than 2^31 bytes (2048 MiB). To still read it, please read the file in chunks as documented here: https://github.com/obspy/obspy/pull/1419#issuecomment-221582369"
