Max file size

[findu]

I tried to upload a 40mb wav file straight from my phone but it won't load. Is it too big?

What's the solution, email it to my laptop cut it in half with winrar and upload 2 winrar files? Who still uses that in 2023?

Or not bother sharing it here?

Cheers

Hi findu,
40mb is no problem, we had 500mb files uploaded. It could be the time your phone needs to upload depending on the connection speed but I can only guess. You can send it to yeppie@yeppie.org if it does not work directly ...

Thanks Yeppie, that makes sense.

Let me try again now that l may have better internet than in the Paris hotel

Hi Yeppie.

I don't think my issue is related to filesize but as I already opened a topic recently will add it here.

Please see attached error. I have fast internet but can't upload any sound files to the forum.. Any ideas? Will try again in a couple days

Cheers

Thank you findu.

I have researched again and again find few relevant results. Most of them again indicate that the error message is time-dependent and not size-dependent.
I had the same upload problem once recently, so I strongly suspect that the server was slow than (an internal update probably). This means that it is not necessarily due to the speed of your Internet connection, but can also be triggered by the server in some cases.

However, if the problem occurs regularly for you, there must be another cause.
