Drag and drop file transfer limit is only 5mb // increase drag and drop file limit

ah ok thanks a lot

I’m having the same issue here; drag and drop only has 5 mb limit, and even when using the file browser, it still has the 5mb limit. There’s no option to right click and browse, so I’m limited on how much I can upload.

Do you know of any other workarounds, or are we just going to have to hope that the developers impliment/fix the feature in the future?

What is the status of this? Something that you could sort out in the next update, perhaps? We’re really enjoying TS6, now that the server files have been released. The only thing we miss is this.

I don’t think QOL is important to them rn. Stability and fleshing out the feature set is problably their priority. Even tho the server files are now available the only noticeable difference is server streaming but it’s still limited to P2P so the server is just handing out IP addresses and not actually handling the streaming itself. Server side streaming should probably be a higher priority than drag and drop

What’s so difficult in it to implement in 2025? Background non-blocking operations? Presaving in temp-file? Limiting max parallel upload degree?
It’s not a thing that could take so long to implement. Importing something as non-blocking operation is not even a killer feature in modern apps.

I already reported this issue on GitHub under the TS6 Server repository, but it was incorrectly closed as COMPLETED (link below):

I’m reporting it here as suggested, but honestly, I’m quite disappointed that bugs and feature requests are being managed through a forum.
A forum isn’t exactly the smartest or most logical place to handle proper issue tracking and feedback.

Ciao Luca

Like already mentioned earlier it is set to be reworked in the future, due to the current implementation the UI handles the upload and would be frozen, until the upload is finished.

To answer your question from the GitHub:

Just wondering, is there a reason why the TeamSpeak Client isn’t hosted on GitHub?

The client nor the server are open source and therefore don’t need a public repository. The repository for the TS6 server only exists because of the current testing phase.

so I have a TS6 Server hosted on server that I own and me and my friends want to share larger files around 60 MB in size when ever I tryed to post a file says there is a 5mb limit I do not see a setting any where to allow me to change file size limits ?

where is the setting kept for this ?

If you are trying to send the 60 MB file directly in the chat, that limit is not something you can change in the server settings.

For larger files, I would use the normal file browser instead. Just right-click the channel, open Browse Files and upload the file there. After that, you can copy the file URL and post it in the chat.

If the upload through the file browser also fails, then I would check the file transfer permissions like i_ft_max_file_size_mb or the upload/storage quotas.

With i_ft_max_file_size_mb = -1, there should not be a fixed size limit for a single file.

The next version 6.0.0-beta5 will allow users to upload files larger than 5mb via drag and drop to the File Browser.
