Are you trying to send the video to the chat or upload it to the file browser? If you try it in the chat, try the file picker, because drag and drop supports a maximum of 5mb. If you try it in the file browser you have to check if all permissions are set correctly.

theres infinite file upload as long as you upload it in the file browser thing, you can then copy a link to it and send it in chat.

Thank you for your responses.
I tried uploading the file via the paperclip icon on the bottom right of a chatroom on my community server but that didn’t work with that 9.84MB MP4.
So just now I’ve tried uploading the file again by right clicking the chatroom<Browse Files and this worked and I could link it to the chat, however there’s no option to just play the video in the chat, instead my friends would need to download the file first and then play it on their computer.
Do you know if there is maybe another way of linking the file to the chat that allows it to be played/viewed in the chatroom or is this currently the only way of sharing a clip?

yeah apparently this was a docker problem. Drag and drop is still weird but now my friend can bring my server down by uploading 10 seasons of Family Guy
Drag and drop is client side limited as otherwise the client would be frozen until the upload is finished. This is a QoL improvement which should be fixed but no date yet.

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 sent 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.
