   Hi,
   Is there a way to upload videos to my blog from my own server without going through a third-party service like youtube? I remember doing it before the 3.01 upgrade, but the icon is no longer there.

   Thanks

   Thank you. I have successfully loaded video this way in the past, but the 3.01 upgrade seemed to change things.

   On 3.01, there is a button for uploading video, but the popup box says there is a 3MB limit. I have increased the allowed space for uploading media, but it still says 3MB limit, and my larger videos will not upload.

   All other information I can find tells me that I can only upload video from a third party service. Is this correct?

   Thank you.

   The file limit is being imposed by your hosts. If you have tried increasing the upload max size via the php.ini file and that's not worked, try contacting them for assistsance.

   Instead of using wordpress upload I just use ftp and upload videos so that I am not restricted.
