There should be enough there to allow you to create the file upload component. The trick is that, AFAIK, there is no built-in support yet in PHP for video file formats and I have not seen any relevant PECL or PEAR packages either. If you know something about the stream formats of the files you're working with, PHP does have fairly advanced stream functions and you could roll your own PHP code for handling video streams. Another suggestion would be to see if there is an inexpensive package that a vendor has already put together. A quick Google search yielded "AlstraSoft Video Share Enterprise" at http://www.alstrasoft.com/videoshare.htm which might have the functions you're looking for (I have no idea, I just searched for it).
