Uploadify broblem with over 10MB files

Question

recently I downloaded the new uploadify plugin for multiple file uploads. It was perfect until i tried to upload a movie about 700MB. After some searching i found than i can't upload any file over 10MB.

Here is my jquery script:

    <script type="text/javascript">
    <?php $timestamp = time();?>
    $(function() {
        $('#file_upload').uploadify({
            'formData'     : {
                'timestamp' : '<?php echo $timestamp;?>',
                'token'     : '<?php echo md5('unique_salt' . $timestamp);?>'
            },
            'auto'     : false,
            'progressData' : 'speed',
            'buttonText' : 'Choose files...',
            'swf'      : 'uploadify.swf',
            'uploader' : 'uploadify.php',

        });
    });
</script>

Please help !!!

Changing the limit on Uploadify

Set the size limit!

'sizeLimit':1024*1024*1024*2 //2GB

Altogether now...

$(function() {
    $('#file_upload').uploadify({
        'formData'     : {
            'timestamp' : '<?php echo $timestamp;?>',
            'token'     : '<?php echo md5('unique_salt' . $timestamp);?>'
        },
        'auto'     : false,
        'progressData' : 'speed',
        'buttonText' : 'Choose files...',
        'sizeLimit': 1024*1024*1024*2,
        'swf'      : 'uploadify.swf',
        'uploader' : 'uploadify.php',

    });
});

You may likely increase the size limit because straight 700MB might not be enough for your image. If it doesn't work, do 800MB

EDIT I revised the code to use 2G file size limit instead.

Changing it in PHP

Go to your php.ini file and set the following parameters:

upload_max_filesize = 2047M
post_max_size = 2047M

PHP is likely your problem because 10MB is the default hard limit

pointless to modify the JS code if php's own size limit is too low. – Marc B Jul 24 '13 at 20:15
When i am trying to upload a movie bigger than 10MB it;s shows that all thinks gone perfect but then when i see the upload file there is nothing there – alexalikiotis Jul 24 '13 at 20:16
i change the size limit from php.ini – alexalikiotis Jul 24 '13 at 20:16
Good! Then set `upload_max_filesize = 700M` AND make sure `post_max_size` is also big enough in php.ini. – Kirk Backus Jul 24 '13 at 20:17
i have this things to 2GB – alexalikiotis Jul 24 '13 at 20:20
I'll change the answer to accomodate – Kirk Backus Jul 24 '13 at 20:21
yes i have change the php.ini like you said but still not working – alexalikiotis Jul 24 '13 at 20:26
Try `2047M` instead of `2G`, I've never actually tested with using the letter "G" – Kirk Backus Jul 24 '13 at 20:27
well i don't know if the php.ini has the problem i think the uplodify has problem – alexalikiotis Jul 24 '13 at 20:31
i'm trying to make a file sharing website and this is very important for me so if anyone knows something please help – alexalikiotis Jul 24 '13 at 20:41
Maybe try: `sizeLimit: '2GB'` or `sizeLimit: '2047MB'`? Otherwise, no clue... :/ – Kirk Backus Jul 24 '13 at 20:41
