I have an application that delivers files to the client browser. These
files a very large video files. 250mb+ each. I have two options: 1) I
could have PHP deliver the file with "fread", or 2) I could have PHP
present a link to the file. However, for security purposes, I would
rather not have the actual files available. I suppose I could have PHP
create temporary symbolic links on the file system that link to the files
in question and then remove the links, thus requiring the users to go
through an authentication process to retrieve files that are assigned to
them.
Anyway, downloading such large files causes PHP to balk with size
limitation errors. I could increase the size limit and memory limit
settings in "php.ini", but for file sizes that large, is it recommended?
Are there "best practice" limits on these settings: max_input_time,
memory_limit, max_execution_time, etc.?
Thanks,
Jonathan
