    Uploading large files in umbraco v7.28

    Hello everyone,

    I've run across an issue using Umbraco v7.28 when trying to upload very large files(190MB+) using the MediaService.

    My issue is very similar to the bug posted here: http://issues.umbraco.org/issue/U4-6809

    My solution is hacky at best, as the project I'm working on allows users/members to create/edit content without ever needing to use the back-office and I can get around this problem using a new fileSize property.

    I am able to upload any size (up to 2GB) using the maxRequestLenght and maxAllowedContent properties, but when the file reaches the Media section of umbraco, (using the MediaService.Save() method), I get an exception System.OutOfMemoryException thrown.

    Uploading a file with the mentioned file size directly into the Media Section of Umbraco also throws a "Not found" error.

    Removing the "umbracoBytes" property from the File type in the MediaTypes section fixes this issue, as stated in the issue on the tracker.

    Has anyone had a similar issue or has any suggestions on how to work around this issue?

    TL;DR; Files (190MB+) can't be saved in the Umbraco Media Section, removing the "umbracoBytes" property fixes the issue, looking for a more appropriate solution.

    Thank you in advance.

    Nikola
