handling large uploads on django, exceeding the max size on nginx

we have a django app on nginx where users upload media files. the media are huge such as 30min tv and radio programs resulting 100-300mb, and our shared hosting limits the upload to 30mb.

how to embed a smart uploader which will put chunks of 20-30mb instead of trying to upload the large file? we would like not to destroy our highly edited forms, so if there is an easy way to insert such tool as a bulletproof widget, you're awesome.

links, snippets, examples - highly appreciated, and any ideas are welcome. tx in advance.

You should consider alternative hosting (perhaps a virtual private server), as for any serious downloads you will quickly run into the limits of your shared hosting.
