Actually, it might be best to ask this question first as I can't track down the answer - What is the absolute max file upload size supported by php/flash uploader/D7? I'm not talking about the size I can specify in php.ini, I'm talking about if I took all stops in the parameters, how much will the architecture actually accept? 1gb? 2gb?
Second bit - After a video has been uploaded and processed, it has been my assumption that two versions are created and stored here: [root]/flash/modules/video/files/ as ##.mp4 full res & ##.m4v for mobile. Is there another location I am unaware of?
When I upload a video just over 1gb, it appears to complete but then throws an access is denied page where you would normally enter the video details. My workaround was to upload a 20mb file, let it process, then replace the core video files with my own mp4 via FTP. I have done this, replacing the old file (in this case, 4.mp4), cleared all cache (server & client) and it still continues to play the original video. How can it do this if the original file has been completely replaced? First suspect is cache, but I know for certain I have cleared it.

has anyone an answer on the storage location of the video files?
and secondly (and i know this might be dumb) butt if you are on a hosted plan they might be the ones limiting your upload size through the browser
i'm kinda not a coder at all and do more screw ups with my work then good results but i cam across that with a downloads site i plan to embed into dolphin to replace its files share system
lastly thanks for the damn good question
without these kinda questions id be truly without hope
Im surprised too not a single bad word |
The original poster was correct, they are stored in /flash/modules/video/files/.

the expeirience level is zilch
as for the problem ive seen it in places in these forums and just looking for where the answer lies
seems when we upload videos from our own computers it uploads then just either white screens us or just altogether stops on the upload page
im sure the answers here somewhere and due to losing the first installation due to my messing round with stuff i shouldnt have been whilst half asleep its not too pressing as yet
(i overwrote the index.php file with another websites index.php file)
if you do know where to point me too itd be a great help
ill try get some screens and edit this post soon
thanks for the help buddy

Do you have access to your server? If so, then you can change the file size in your php.ini file. By default it is small... I dont remember if it's 2, 8 or 20mb... but small. You just need to add the following lines:
php_value file_uploads on
php_value upload_max_filesize 500M
Just put those lines in the top. If you don't have access to your php.ini file, just stick it in the .htaccess file in your website's root directory. Doesn't need to be anywhere particular... Keep in mind I have mine set for 500 megs but you can make it whatever you want... up to 2024 megs, i think. I could be wrong about that max, though.
The seond thing you have to think about is the timeout for the page. I don't know PHP but I would imagine you can change that somewhere.
And remember - once you do that, you will have to restart Apache.
