Drive Plugin - 25mb file size limit

Post by *stevehero »

Hi all,

I've installed the plugin https://www.ghisler.com/driveplugin.htm and there seems to be a limit to the file sizes that can be transferred over to the google drive.

Is there a way around this?

I just tried uploading a larger file (33MB APK) and it worked just fine. Do you use the option "Convert uploaded documents"?
When I google for: google drive 25mb limit
I found the following information:
"the maximum file size you can upload and convert is limited: 2 MB for Docs, 20 MB for Sheets, and 50 MB for Slides. Larger files can be uploaded; they just can't be converted to Google Drive formats."

In my case it's an .m4a file.

I don't know where that setting is. Is that in TC? Seeing that this is an .m4a file. I doubt that is the issue.

The error I'm getting is:
Cannot move or copy file.

I didn't have such a big m4a file, so I renamed a mp4 file to m4a. The upload went fine (30MB).

Are you able to upload the same file via Web browser?

I've tried the app and the Web browser on the mobile which I had to switch to desktop mode for the upload function to appear on my mobile.

Both uploaded successfully.
