Forum:Filesize Restriction

Hello. I've gotten OGG audio files enabled on my wiki along with standard image filetypes, with a maximum filesize of 10mb. (I think this is normal, if not it may have been increased without my being notified)

Unfortunately, the largest files I'm aware of are up to 12 or maybe even 15mb - I haven't checked quite that far ahead - and as a site owner I'm aware of how precious bandwidth can be. Therefore I'd like to hear if anyone has any free, preferably simple methods of compressing OGG files to a more fitting filesize? If not I may have to request an increase, but I'm hesitant to do so if there's another simple method of resolving it. - Xelrog T. Apocalypse 04:09, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

If I can add something to this, I also keep getting a 'Not Allowed' message when I try to use the OGG player application that I've gotten activated on my Wiki, even for working files. They'll work half the time, but the other half of the time, this message will appear and the file simply won't play. Does anyone know what the cause of this might be? - Xelrog T.
