Increase WordPress 8MB video upload limit

[Yodaheim]

I need to upload videos to a WordPress site, but the maximum file size allowed by WP is 8GB - I need to upload vids of 50 - 100 MB... maybe more. I could overcome this by simply FTPing directly, but it isn't my site and it would be too much grief to explain the process of FTP (don't ask).

I remember reading something about this before, but the SERPS have been polluted by crappy AdSense sites and I can't find a proper answer anywhere.

So how does I do it?

Don't worry... figures it out.

in php.ini......

; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.
upload_max_filesize = xxM

post_max_size = xxM

I wish all threads in this section were this simple. I did it 6 months ago and started looking up the file that needs to be edited while waiting for this tab to load....
