An update: I am stupid!
Months later, I find that the reason firefox was using so much memory is because I had firebug running. Just wanted to correct myself and say that everything works great in Firefox 7 (under normal conditions).

@ketulgandhi, you define it just as any other event. Just try. in the event handler you should get three arguments: uploader object, file object, and Exif/Gps data object (currently those events are only triggered if you have client resizing activated).

...
uploader.bind('ExifData', function(uploader, file, exif) {
    console.log(exif);
});
...

Here is the printout of available data in Exif object (we include only the most widespread):

ApertureValue: 2.970853573907009
ColorSpace: "sRGB"
DateTimeOriginal: "2011:08:09 19:55:53"
ExifVersion: "0221"
ExposureMode: "Auto exposure"
ExposureTime: 0.016666666666666666
FNumber: 2.8
Flash: "No flash function"
ISOSpeedRatings: 64
MeteringMode: "Average"
PixelXDimension: 100
PixelYDimension: 75
SceneCaptureType: "Standard"
Sharpness: "Soft"
ShutterSpeedValue: 5.90689238210399
WhiteBalance: "Auto white balance"

And here is example printout for Gps object:

GPSLatitude: Array[3]
GPSLatitudeRef: "N"
GPSLongitude: Array[3]
GPSLongitudeRef: "E"

Is there an example or documentation of new events ExifData & GpsData introduced in 1.5?

What info is available and how do I access it? Do I define these in init:{...}?

@agentOOjoe do you have chunking activated?

Ok, thanks Davit. Another issue now... I thought I would give silverlight a try, as a backup to HTML5 still allowing large file uploads. Unfortunately, this appears to be filling ram memory even faster than html5. I don't get it. I thought that using silverlight, or any of the 3rd party uploaders, would eliminate the need to store the file in memory.

This update is proving to be quite bumpy for someone who needs 3gb+ file uploads. Should I continue to depend on JakobAdams java runtime plugin?

Firefox has some serious flaws with garbage collecting quickly created things, especially if you are on Mac. Are you testing Firefox on Mac? I had a nice test with Firefox 6 on Windows, where I was able to upload quite big file (around 1gb), although the same approach doesn't work on Mac, since there is a bug in Gecko 6 for Mac. No idea when these issues will be addressed. HTML5 upload not possible at all in IE, Opera, or Safari, they simply lack required functionality.

Unfortunately, the file still gets stored in ram memory in firefox 7 (windows). Files over 1.5gb are failing because I (the uploader) run out of ram.

So, here is my understanding... the new html5 uploader doesn't work properly in Firefox, or in Safari (windows), or in IE. Is that correct?

In chrome, it works beautifully. I just finished a 5.6gb file upload.

Could one of the administrators possibly outline when the new html5 uploader will work properly, and in which browsers?

Large upload in Firefox (despite of the bug) works starting from Firefox 4. Desired effect is reached only in Firefox 7 though

- Large upload works fine Windows/Chrome/HTML5
- DnD works fine Windows/Chrome/HTML5
- Large Upload on Windows/HTML5/Firefox 3 seems to be limited to 50Mb (even if the file is larger it is cut) => works on FF5/6

I pushed a commit to github, disabling multiple file selection on Safari for Windows completely... for some time I guess.

Any other browser works for me. The only child that makes pain is safari 5.1

Damn... I thought that problem was only Drag'n'Drop related. Now it's seems whole multiple thing is screwed

Re: Plupload v1.5b

This is most likely due to a bug in the current release of Safari 5.1 for Windows. There is an issue logged for this:

https://github.com/moxiecode/plupload/issues/363

You can check this - do you get the same behaviour with Firefox or Chrome and the HTML5 runtime?

If you select multiple files in the HTML5 runtime on http://plupload.com/example_all_runtimes.php all files have size 0 b.
It does only work if you select every single file on its own by hitting "Add files" and select only one file, that gets queued. you can repeat this for all files you want to add and then hit "Start Upload".

I tried it with Windows 7 and Safari 5.1 (7534.50)
