The actual transfer rate depends on the format of the files being transferred, the number and
bit rate of video streams being played.
Logging In to the Server FTP Service
The server allows only for anonymous login. Using one of the FTP clients shown in
Table 2
,
enter “anonymous” as the user name or check the “anonymous” checkbox on the login screen.
When the FTP client is connected, it will display the Clips in the main directory and all of the
sub-folders. Clips can be uploaded, downloaded, deleted and renamed using standard FTP client
commands. Clips in the subfolders can be displayed by entering those folders. Consult the
documentation for your FTP client for information on changing folders.
File Sizes Reported in Listing
The size of a clip reported in the file listing is the amount of video and audio data included in
the entire clip, regardless of the settings of the In Point and Out Point.
Overwriting Files
It is the responsibility of the client application (Windows Explorer, FlashFXP, etc) to ask the
user if they want to overwrite a file.
Note that some types of files (such as .mov and Targa) change their file extensions when they
have been transferred into the server. In these cases, the FTP client cannot warn of a file
overwrite. It is important to take extra care when using these types of files not to overwrite
necessary files.
Interrupted and Resumed Transfers
If a transfer is interrupted (for example, by a dropped connection), the amount of the file that
has been transferred is kept on the target system. Resumption of a partial transfer is possible if the
FTP client supports it.
