 * Hey there.
 * Does your host not permit you to change the upload size and processing time either
   through a custom php.ini or your .htaccess?
 * If they do you’d want to look at these for php.ini:
 *     ```
       post_max_size = 256M
       upload_max_filesize = 256M
       max_execution_time = 360
       ```
   
 * Or .htaccess:
 *     ```
       php_value post_max_size 256M
       php_value upload_max_filesize 256M
       php_value max_execution_time 360
       ```
   
 * Obviously using the size you wish or are permitted too. Increasing the execution
   time is so it doesn’t timeout on larger files.
 * If they don’t allow you to alter those locally then what about adding them to
   the Media Library through a plugin like this:

 * Hope this helps.
