I set params: upload_size: 500m in app.yml. Tried uploading a 153MB mp4 video and got the error message “Sorry, there was an error uploading that file. Please try again.” A 26.5MB mp4 video file uploads fine. Checking the nginx conf file inside the docker container it is properly set to 500m. Wh…

Discourse isn’t oriented towards giant video sharing tasks. We recommend uploading those videos to Vimeo, or YouTube, or similar. Is there anything we could do to make this use case work better though @zogstrip ? I’m unsure.

[صورة] vaughajj: Unfortunately the use case doesn’t lend itself well to uploading to dropbox or youtube as the student work needs to be kept private and the class frequently uploads the movies directly from iOS devices lended out to them by our college so setting up Dropbox each time the devices…

I did a proof of concept for someone needing to upload videos at a university (in a former life I was an instructional technology professor at a decent state university). If you keep the videos small enough you can make it work. As I recall, it was trouble upping the limit, but I got it to where I t…

[صورة] codinghorror: Is there anything we could do to make this use case work better though @zogstrip ? I’m unsure. On the server side, not sure what to do about the connection reset. On the client side, we could show a warning to let the user know that it’s probably better to use YouTube or …

Thank you for all the feedback. Trying out YouTube as a solution, the 20 minute test video took about 8 minutes to compress, transfer to YouTube, convert, and be pasted into Discourse – directly from iOS. Not bad in my opinion. The only downside is the YouTube sign in and having to share a single…

[صورة] vaughajj: The only downside is the YouTube sign in and having to share a single Google account/YouTube login credentials with everyone in the class. Would it be sufficient to have the video ‘unlisted’ rather than ‘private’? That way uploading would be the same but it could still be emb…

Yes, unlisted would be sufficient – that was actually what I was testing with. I could not figure out how to embed a private video.

For the sake of user convenience - only using Discourse and not combining together different platforms - is it possible to change the settings so that Discourse can handle large files? An audio recording of a 30 minute presentation with an image-rich PPT that accompanies the audio can be larger than…

See Change the maximum attachment/upload size @sam : Perhaps someone should add upload_size: 10m in the params section of standalone.yml?

Uploading video file returns "Sorry, there was an error uploading that file. Please try again."

Would it be sufficient to have the video ‘unlisted’ rather than ‘private’? That way uploading would be the same but it could still be embedded without difficulty.
