Max file upload size?
-
So I’m trying to upload a video file to my WordPress blog, and I can’t seem to do so successfully. The file I’m trying to upload is about 1.53 GB, which is far less than my available media library space.
Is there a limit to how big videos I can upload to my blog? I signed on to my current account to be able to upload video(s), so I really hope I’m not running into a file size limitation. Thanks in advance for your help!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
Generally, we advise keeping the size of videos around 1 GB or lower because anything above that usually errors out. Occasionally, uploading to 1.4 GB works, but you will have the most success if you optimize your video to no more than 1 GB.
VideoPress works well for files up to 1GB. However, the larger the file, the more likely it is that the upload process will fail. Most networks will time out before you’re able to upload a file that’s larger than 1.4 GB. It’s best to compress your videos to a smaller size to optimize for web viewing.

Hope this helps.
