Upload big videos from a form to server - PHP

I have to set up a form allowing the upload of videos whose weight is about 20GB for each.

This processing must be done in PHP.

I did a test with Plupload, but it does not work very well beyond 100MB: the file is uploaded, but its data is unusable (cf screenshot).

Do you have any recommendations/best practices?

Thanks.

Just found the solution, in your .js file that handle the upload you just need to add the multipart option and to put the value to false :)

It means that the chunk should be sent as binary stream (ie. multipart : false) and not as multipart/form-data (default ie. multipart : true)

If need here is an example on how I handled video files upload with Plupload : https://github.com/Rapkalin/bigupload

Hope this helps :)

At first point you need to make some changes in your php.ini configuration file. Look for upload_max_filesize, post_max_size, then you should look for max_execution_time, max_input_time. As i can see your file is missing an extension, easiest and fastest way to handle this is:

$strpos = strpos($file, '.');
if (!$strpos) return false;
$name = substr($file, 0, $strpos);
$ext  = substr($file, ($strpos + 1));

Now you can encode your name and append extension later. Also it will be good to paste your script or sample so we can look at it.
