content of this is
not
to be modified by the user.
-
The
ft
track is a binary file that contains information used by the server to index into
the video content during trimming operations. The content of this file is
not
to be
modified by the user.

The
std
track is a binary file that contains all the MPEG media content: video,
audio, vertical interval etc. The content of this file is
not
to be modified by the user.
-
The
info
track is an ASCII file that is optionally provided by the user. The info file
is specifically for automation systems to store and retrieve information about the
material. This includes database information tracked by the automation systems or
other user information data associated with the material. The server does not use the
information in the info file in any way. The server simply carries the information
along with the material for retrieval by automation systems.
•
delete –
Used to delete content directories. The command does not accept wild cards.
Only content directories can be deleted, and not individual content tracks. Deletes fail
when the content being deleted is in use (typically for playing video) by the server.
•
ls, dir
– Used to list content directories and items, and also accepts wild cards. When
listing content directories, the size includes all items within the directory. The size is in
units of bytes. Wild card characters are only supported at the content level. The only
track-level wild-card character supported is “*”, which will list all tracks available.
•
size –
Returns the size of the content specified in units of bytes.
•
bin –
Sets the transfer mode to binary. If the ftp client is set to ASCII mode, the user
must set the mode to binary with the
bin
command in order to transfer files to the Video
File System.
•
rstatus –
This command returns the status of the server. In addition to the standard ftpd
information, ftpd also returns the number of FTP data transfers in progress and the total
available disk space. An example of the output returned by the rstatus command
follows.
