PHP.ini
If your host allows you to alter the php.ini (Iee. via Cpanel/WHM) or a custom php.ini then find these variables and alter them

- Controls the maximum filesize of uploaded attachments (measured megabytes eg to set max 16mb attachment use 16M)
upload_max_filesize = 16M

- Controls the maximum size of posted contents (includes the post and all attachments) (measured megabytes eg to set max 16mb use 16M)
post_max_size = 16M

- Controls the maximum time allowed to upload - larger files may take a while to upload (measured in seconds eg 9000 = 150 minutes)
max_input_time = 9000

- Controls the maximum amount of time each script may spend parsing request data
max_execution_time = 9000

PHP may require to be restarted after changing these variables.

If you still having issues with the session expiring whilst uploading, try changing this variable in your php.ini

session.gc_maxlifetime = 86400
(measured in seconds eg 86400 = 24hrs
