Razor Pages .Net Core - cannot upload large Files / Videos

I am trying to 'upload' a video file in to my application and pass it to the database. I am able to handle pictures quite nicely however as soon as I try larger / video files I am getting a Status: 400 error code when a Submit is made.

    enter image description here

    Code:

            services.Configure<FormOptions>(x =>
        {
            x.ValueLengthLimit = int.MaxValue;
            x.MultipartBodyLengthLimit = int.MaxValue;
            x.MultipartHeadersLengthLimit = int.MaxValue;
        });

        services.Configure<KestrelServerOptions>(options =>
        {
            options.Limits.MaxRequestBodySize = int.MaxValue;
        });

    Now I am able to load large files as expected.
