Content that is placed under the autoingest root folder on the ETV Portal Server will be ingested into the root video folder on the VOD server provided that it is configured using the ETV Portal Server Administrator interface. If you want to place content on a subfolder in the VOD server, that same folder would have to be created and configured using the ETV Portal Server Admin interface as described below.
Go to Global Settings > Servers > Add/Modify Video
existing or new folder can be associated with selected VOD servers for autoingestion. The folders are listed on the left with the path relative to autoingest root. The VOD servers are listed on the right inside the Add/Modify Folders on Selected Servers box. Select the desired folder and then select the target VOD servers to ingest content. Press Submit. The folder is now created under the autoingest root folder and configured. See Add/Modify Video On Demand Content Folders on page 34 for details.
Example
If under the root video folder on the VOD Server you had a folder (or want to create a folder) called Training and you wanted trainingvideo.mpg to be placed there.
FTP the file to the Portal Server into <drive:>\inetpub\ftproot\mcs\autoingest\training\
The ETV Portal Server will then ingest the file automatically into the folder on the VOD server(s) that this folder is associated with. The file trainingvideo.mpg would be displayed on the ETV Portal Server user interface in the Training folder.
