Sun MediaCenter Server FTP Daemon

6-15

As an example, consider that you encode the title “Batman” at 3 Mbits/sec., in
MPEG Transport Stream format. You have three MPEG files, one for normal speed,
one for 21 times normal speed, forward direction, and one for 21 times normal
speed, reverse direction. On the encoding machine, you use the following sequence
of commands to load the title on to the server:

Following completion of the

put

commands, you can access “Batman” on the Sun

MediaCenter server by simply specifying

batman

. For commands such as

smc_copy

, or for the Media Stream Manager, the name

batman

identifies all of the

files associated with that title, as well as all of the title’s attributes.

The Sun MediaCenter FTP daemon invokes Content Manager functions to
automatically create index files for

MPEGTS

-format streams. Automatic index file

generation does not occur for

MPEG1SYS

trick play streams. See Section B.5 “Index

File Requirements” on page B-10 for a discussion of index files.
