Upload big videos from a form to server - PHP

Question

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 :)
