bug
[#44326] - Large file uploads (~1 GB+) do not start in Media Manager.
- New
- Medium
- Build: 5.2-dev
- # 44326
Steps to reproduce the issue
Attempt to upload a large file (approx. 1 GB or more) via Media Manager.
Expected result
A POST request is made and the file is successfully uploaded.
Actual result
The JavaScript FileReader API seems to fail resulting in no POST request being sent.
System information (as much as possible)
Joomla 4.4.9 (but as far as I understand, affects both 4 and 5). Firefox 131.0.3. The rest is irrelevant and related system configurations have been verified to work with alternative uploaders.
Additional comments
For those seeking for a working alternative for uploading large files for the time being, I suggest looking at JCE Editor Pro (File Browser) or similar.

It shouldn’t be a hard thing to implement transform streams for the conversion to base64: https://caniuse.com/mdn-api_transformstream
It probably will not work. Or you have to wait for some time.
The Media Manager encode the file to base64, and for 1Gb it can take a while.
I think it is designed for relatively small files, and cannot handle really huge uploads. Which is sad.
