Hosting support

Looking to create a Drupal video website, and will probably use FFMPEG to convert the videos to Flash. At present I'm using Siteground as my host. If I want FFMPEG from them, I have to get my own server. I've talked to someone at Cirtex Hosting, which seems to offer FFMPEG as part of their basic package. Are there any other companies out there that offer FFMPEG? Any of them recommended?

Hi,

I am quite new in Drupal so excuse my possibly obvious question.

What I could not work out is why people look for UK based hosting company as opposed to US ones when hosting Drupal websites. US ones are way less expensive.

Does it have to do with some legal matters, esp. if a commercial website is hosted? Or it is just a personal preference?

Many thanks

Alex

Can anyone recommend a host that has a large php max_upload limit? Dreamhost is capped at 4MB. For nontechnical users, it's such a hassle to upload a large podcast via ftp before linking to it with drupal.

Is anyone else having email and MySQL uptime issues with Bluehost?

I love the fact that I get command prompt access with Bluehost and that they have good support but latlly I have been having some uptime issues and I was wondering if anyone else was seeing this to.

Thanks,
Steve

We have passed from apachi to lighttpd. After passing, our modules have created problem and the system is always being locked. mysql is also being locked becouse of the system. I don't really know if I was the right part of the forum, but I need help urgently.
