You can FTP the file into your WP-CONTENT/UPLOADS folder, then use “Add From Server” plugin to add it to your media on WP, then use “Flowplayer HTML5 for WordPress” plugin to play it.
Thank you, Questas.
I attempted what you suggested. However, when I attempted to activate Add From Server I received an error message that my server must use PHP 5.4 or higher and mine is PHP 5.3.28.
Three weeks ago I ran into a similar problem and contacted my host, lunarpages, and asked when they would be upgrading. They said an upgrade was scheduled but it could take as much as a year. They have their clients in severs from A-Z, and I am in Q. They have only updated servers A-B so far.
Another suggestion beyond Add From Server plugin?

You should still be able to run it. Try this in your text editor (NOT VISUAL EDITOR). Of course change the url and video name, etc..
