The Destinations tab contains the following items.
• Destinations list: This lists destination names and pathnames.
There are four default destinations in the Apple folder: Source is the same folder from
which the source media file originated; Desktop is the user’s Desktop folder; User’s
Movies Folder is the user’s Movies folder; Cluster Storage is a cluster’s scratch storage
location.
Note: Cluster Storage applies only to installations of Compressor that have distributed
processing enabled. The distributed processing feature is limited to computers that
have Final Cut Studio installed.
• Add (+): To create a local or remote destination, click this button and choose either
Local or Remote from the pop-up menu.
• Local: If you choose Local, a file selection dialog appears in which you can select a
destination folder.
• Remote: If you choose Remote, the Remote destination dialog appears. Enter FTP
information concerning host name, file path, user, and password for accessing the
remote location. You can also enter an iDisk location.
