DTS Pro Series Network Encoder for MAC OSX – Manager and User Guide

2.3. User file management via FTP

Microsoft’s Internet Explorer web browser running on Windows has the ability to function as a regular file manager over FTP connections. In other words, it is possible to copy local and remote files into or out of local or remote directories, and relocate files and directories in a remote location; all using the built-in native capabilities of the browser. The key requirement is a constant FTP connection to the remote location using the browser.

Keep in mind that this is a capability of the browser itself. A different browser may not work.

Please refer to Uploading Packed Files (page 25) for connection details.

2.4. Setting the Root Directory

The DTS Pro Series Network Encoder requires a disk location where the Encoder User’s files will be stored. In the context of the DTS Pro Series Network Encoder, this location is called its Root Directory. During installation, the DTS Pro Series Network Encoder will create a default Root Directory under /Applications/dts/Facility_Xencode/, and call it DTS_ROOT. Alternatively, you, the Manager, can create a Root Directory in your OS X user account, and later notify the Administrator program about which existing directory to use as its Root Directory.

αχ Note: You can only specify a new Root Directory if there are no users registered in the Administrator program. If you are changing the set Root Directory from one directory to a different one, you will need to delete all users before the system will allow the change. Deleting a user erases all information related to that user from the database. See topic Deleting Users, page 5, for more information on deleting users.

αχ Note: When setting the Root Directory, avoid folders that have spaces in their names. The FTP server cannot work with folder names containing spaces.

αχ Note: Only an account for which the software was installed has direct access to the /Applications/dts/Facility_Xencode/ folder and its contents. If you are specifying a Root Directory other than the default one, it is your responsibility to set the proper access permissions accordingly.
