Uploading Big files

I know I have mentioned it before and we tried lengthening the time out and the upping the memory limit in PHP, but it doesn't seem to upload quick enough to make a difference. What I'm wondering is there any way that I could upload the file to the server via some other means(ftp, sftp, etc) and then add it into the cms like that. I shouldn't run into time outs at that point.

Thank you for your help.

Contentteller was never made for such huge attachements, but you could try the following SQL query:

ALTER TABLE esselbach_ct_contentfiles CHANGE contentfile_binary contentfile_binary LONGBLOB;


Let me know if this work.

The ones I'm trying to add are .mp3 files that are podcasts. They will probably be listed in a pages section since it is static content for the most part. I would also be posting movies .avi .3gp, etc.

They are ranging from 60-110 MB in size. After about 20-30 MB I usually get the time out on my system and it kicks me to the main admin page. This is with your changing of the time outs and me upping the PHP memory size.
