Creating and Editing FTP Directory Profiles on Interplay Transfer
Client
When a workgroup includes an FTP server, you need to create FTP directory profiles on the
Interplay Transfer client that allows the FTP server to connect with the Avid editing system.
The FTP Directory Profile must contain the same connection information as the Avid
Interplay Transfer Engine Configuration settings.
The Avid FTP Media Browser application is used for ingest from FTP servers.
When working with Grass Valley K2 Media Server, see the document Working with the
Thomson Grass Valley K2 Media Server.
To create and edit FTP directory profiles:
1. From the Avid editing system, click the Start button, and then select All Programs >
Avid > Utilities > Avid FTP Media Browser.
The FTP Media Browser application opens.
