I am having the same problem with 6.1.6 ... Anyone able to give us aheads up on this one???

Well, this greatly varies on the following values in the global server php.ini. Modifying them on the local one will not do the trick for you, most probably:

Of course, file_uploads must be allowed with value "On" :)

D7 allow to upload any size of video file. Max upload size depends on your hosting restrictions. So check firstly how many you able upload in time in settings.

Also, seems like there is a settings in the Admin Panel some where to set the upload size to in addition to your PHP settings.

You can check your Php ini settings by logging into your admin to check the value . After go to the link www.yoursite.com/administration/phpinfo.php.

Values in the phpinfo.php are being controlled either via the .htaccess file (recursively) or via the php.ini file (per directory). You need to ask your hosting provider if PHP is running via SuExec or not. If PHP is running standalone and via SueExec, you will be able to change values from the phpinfo.php via a php.ini file. If the opposite (as an Apache module, mod_php), you will have to issue PHP settings changes via .htaccess file.

In the php.ini scenario, the file should look like this:

upload_max_filesize = 128M

and in the .htaccess scenario, you should add such a rule:

php_value upload_max_filesize = 128M

If you have troubles determining this or your hosting provider is not in help -- drop me a PM and I will help you out.

I ran my phpinfo.php and upload_max_filesize is set to 300M

I still get 503 errors when attempting to upload an 80MB flv

what else do I need to check/do?
