在 PHP 中使用分块上传 1GB 文件

I have a web application that accepts file uploads of up to 4 MB. The server side script is PHP and web server is NGINX. Many users have requested to increase this limit drastically to allow upload of video etc.

However there seems to be no easy solution for this problem with PHP. First, on the client side I am looking for something that would allow me to chunk files during transfer. SWFUpload does not seem to do that. I guess I can stream uploads using Java FX (http://blogs.oracle.com/rakeshmenonp/entry/javafx_upload_file) but I can not find any equivalent of request.getInputStream in PHP.

Increasing browser client_post limits or php.ini upload or max_execution times is not really a solution for really large files (~ 1GB) because maybe the browser will time out and think of all those blobs stored in memory.

Is there any way to solve this problem using PHP on server side? I would appreciate your replies.

plupload is a javascript/php library, and it's quite easy to use and allows chunking.

It uses HTML5 though.
