# Upload
|
|
The primary way you can add files to the LibreTime library is using the
|
|
**Upload** page of the administration interface. (The **Upload** page is not
|
|
visible to *Guest* users). This page includes an upload queue for media files,
|
|
which supports drag and drop from your computer's file manager if you are using
|
|
a recent web browser, such as *Mozilla Firefox 16* or later.
|
|
|
|
Some web browsers may set an upload limit for a single file, between 200MB and
|
|
2GB. In addition the default LibreTime webserver configuration limits file size
|
|
to 500M. If you need to upload files larger than 500MB to the LibreTime server
|
|
on a regular basis, you will need to have your admin update the configuration at
|
|
`/etc/apache2/sites-available/airtime.conf` (see [here](../host-configuration/index.md)).
|
|
Airtime previously supported import via SFTP but this functionality is still under
|
|
development for LibreTime.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If your web browser does not support drag and drop, you can click the background
|
|
of the screen on the **Upload page**, to open up a file browser dialog.
|
|
LibreTime will automatically attempt to upload files once you select them. You
|
|
can track the file upload progress via the gray progress bar in the upload
|
|
window.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The upload speed will depend on the network connection between your computer and
|
|
the LibreTime server. While files are uploading you need to keep this browser
|
|
window open or it will interrupt the file transfer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After the file transfer is complete, the file is then processed by the analyzer
|
|
service and if it has been succesfully uploaded the **Import Status** will
|
|
change from **Pending Import** to **Succesfully imported**. If it fails there
|
|
was some reason your file was rejected by LibreTime and you will need to try
|
|
again or contact your Admin to have them consult the logs and open up a bug
|
|
report. It sometimes takes a few minutes for files to be processed but if they
|
|
are all stuck at **Pending Import** then it is possible that the
|
|
*airtime_analyzer* process has crashed and the admin will need to restart it.
|
|
See [Troubleshooting](../troubleshooting) for more information. You can look
|
|
specifically at any failed imports by clicking the radio button next to Failed.
|
|
|
|
Once they are done procesing your files ready to be included in your broadcast
|
|
playlists, smart blocks and shows and can be viewed in the [Tracks](../Tracks)
|
|
section of the Library.
