I want to change the upload timeout(default: 5000) by passing options of client’s stop\_recordingscreen command.  
But it can’t be reached to the upload function.

This is the HTTP read timeout and is not configurable via REST API. You could change its default value at [https://github.com/appium/appium-support/blob/5b2db87136efa8eae4bcc81634b171d7670fd788/lib/net.js#L28](https://github.com/appium/appium-support/blob/5b2db87136efa8eae4bcc81634b171d7670fd788/lib/net.js#L28)
