Video Files Won't Upload

Permalink
Seen a lot of other posts about people having troubles uploading files. If we have videos that we want on the site and they are, lets say 20-50 MB in size, the FileManager seems to puke.

I look at my network activity, and it spikes when I start uploading... then after a several minutes, it stops, but the FileManager is still sitting there with the spinning pinwheel?

Is there a resolution to this yet?

Would be great if there would be a way for us to point to files already on the server to get database entries added and the used within C5....seems that that might be what is being worked on....

RC1 apparently has a single file upload. If you check out base.php there are several variables you can set in there, I know there is one for max image dimensions, perhaps there is one in there for file upload.

A lot of webservers limit file uploads through a form upload, but they are ok with ftp. ftp won't get it in the Filemanager since that requires registering in the db, but you could set up a job to loop through whichever directory you are putting videos in and if it isn't found in the db then to insert an existing file into the db (well pointers) every few minutes or so if you can't upload through the single file manager or the flash uploader tool.

This is not best case, but not a ton of work.

I cant even upload a 3mb FLV. So now I have to make a video player that the user will not be able to control through C5.

If anyone has a better solution to this please let me know.

Thanks
Paul

yeah there's something funky with your install for sure. I can upload 50meg files to concrete5 no problem.

there are two or three to edit, max_post_size, max_upload_size, and perhaps one other one.

you have to adjust your max upload size in the php.ini file on your server
