With regard to video-file attributes, when you get or mget files, (the Media File System [MFS]-to-local file system direction) those files are stored in a local file system with as many or few attributes as you specify. Conversely, when you put or mput files (the local file system-to-MFS direction), those files are stored in the MFS with the attributes that were recorded in the local file system from which the files were copied.
