About bin and asset naming limitations
The asset name, bin name, and path can include up to 259 characters (including
separators such as \). Some parts of the file path are not visible in AppCenter or
Aurora applications.
The file system limits the number of bytes in a name as well as the number of
characters. The full count of 259 characters applies to names in English and other
languages referred to in ISO 8859-1. The number of characters might be less than 259
with some other character sets.
NOTE: Try to limit path names to less than 150 characters.
The following table breaks down the character length restrictions for the sample file
system path of
\media\mybin1\mybin2\MyVideo.cmf\MyVideo.xml
