Uploading FLV video files error
Permalink
Hi,
When I try and upload an FLV video file which is 30mb I get a time out error popup after a while saying its not possible.
How can I increase the size limit of uploads?
Is this something I need to get my web host to sort out?
thanks for reading

There is a built-in feature to get around this. FTP your file to the /files/incoming/ folder (create it if it's not there) then use the file manager to "upload" the file from there. In the file manager, click "Upload Multiple" and then select the tab "Add Incoming". You should see your file waiting there for you.
the only problem with that is I wanted the users of the site to just use the c5 uploader as they wont have ftp software..
Are there no server changes or modificatiosn that can be made?
thanks for your reply :)

yes there is a way to overcome it, but it requires some coding for you :)
Use set_time_limit(0) but you have to disable the safe_mode:http://php.net/manual/en/function.set-time-limit.php... I suggest to use a fixed time () because if there is a problem in the script (endless loops or memory leaks) this can not be a source of problems.
