Configuring the FTP Server
The following covers the configuration process for the FTP server. This process
applies whether you are running FTP server software on a PC on a network or
have a dedicated FTP server.
1. The first step is to create the path and permissions to the directory which the
Hi-Def Digital Signage Media Player will be accessing. In our example from
the
settings.xml file, we specified the following:
In the example above, the IP address of the FTP server is
192.168.2.70.
2. Create a local directory structure on the FTP server. The directory structure
must be
identical to the directory structure on the USB drive.
The
settings.xml file must exist in the root directory, as shown below:
3. Configure the FTP server to point to the above directory structure. Only the
parent directory should be specified.
For example, if you create a parent directory called
/foo, the /media,
/playlists, and /schedules directory should reside under the /foo
directory.
