951448 - Problem uploading Firefox for Android B-Roll Video

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

I've hit a file upload limit on the press center of 25mb, even though I have six files already on this page above 25mb. Can you expand our storage size again so I can upload this before the end of Wednesday?

Actually I don't see any videos in the press blog's internal media library at the moment, they're all hosted externally, either at videos.mozilla.org or videos-cdn.mozilla.net (and one on youtube). If we can't increase the upload limit for WordPress then we just need to get those videos onto a server elsewhere and simply link to them like the current videos. I'm not sure who can post content to videos.mozilla.org. Probably Spencer.

What's the page/URL in question?

Craig is correct, files that big should be put on videos.mozilla.org and be referenced through the CDN URL for it

https://blog.mozilla.org/press/media-library/videos/ and I suspect we may have similar needs on some of the other international press blogs.

Yeah, those either point right to videos or to its CDN alias, ideally they should all use the CDN alias

https://mana.mozilla.org/wiki/display/websites/videos.mozilla.org?src=search#videos.mozilla.org-RequestAccountforUploading had the details on getting upload access to it

Since we didn't need to increase the upload limit after all there's nothing for webops to do on this. Calling it a wontfix. Thanks!
