database - Uploading Large Video Files to server, solution? -
i have spent hours reading how upload large files server. these video files in hundreds of megabytes, , in .mp4 format.
my first attempt using php processing post, not working files above 2 megabytes due restrictions in php.ini , httpd.conf.
some users increasing these limits levels needed, , hoping upload work.
some websites seem using flash uploaders, ones have tried have been difficult, , never explicitly mentioned if solved upload size problem.
i have looked @ ftp using php client, examples found transferring file ftp server after had been posted. ftp using separate client out of question, file name , related data stored in database.
currently, operating on localhost, , site served box have physical access to, still wary of increasing max_upload_size , related requirements because want move hosted service.
what best solution? there way upload large files strictly through php , html? if not, best solution upload large files while still being able pass filename database?
thanks answer
the standard form-based file upload doesn’t work since files uploaded in single http post requests.
- web servers cannot accept large http requests.
- the upload process long. if there connection problem, user has start over.
if looking solution built website, should consider using upload component can shrink files chunks client-side, send each chunk in separate request , put files on server. these components work browser extensions. though obsessed html5 these days , nobody likes java applets , activex components, java/activex suits best task.
