again.

Transferring from a P2 card to an FTP server (copy)

Clips on P2 cards can be transferred to the FTP server.
1
Press the <THUMBNAIL> button.
The thumbnail screen is displayed.
2
Select a clip to be transferred.
3
Select [FTP] in the main menu → [CLIP] → [COPY].

The folders of FTP server are displayed.
4
Select the transfer destination folder using the cursor buttons.
Press the <SET> button while pressing the <SHIFT> button (<MULTI SEL>) to create a new folder in the current folder list. Numbers that indicate
date and time are automatically entered as the name of the new folder. You can also use the software keyboard to set the folder name. However,
some characters cannot be used depending on the FTP server. You cannot set a folder name that is same as an existing folder.
5
Move the cursor to [YES] and press the <SET> button.
Copying starts.
For the procedure to import by clips, refer to "Copying clips" (page 118).
When copying is completed, [COPY COMPLETED!] appears.
@ NOTE
t When proxy recording clips falling under the following categories are transferred to the FTP server, they are displayed separately in the server.
- Recorded clips that exceed the continuous recording time in the memory card
- Clips recorded across multiple memory cards
- Clips recorded through one-clip recording
t Folder names using multi-byte characters are not displayed correctly.
t Depending on the number of clips on the server and network conditions, it may take some time to display thumbnails or to copy them.
t To cancel the copy process, use the cursor buttons to place the cursor on [CANCEL] and press the <SET> button. On the [CANCEL] confirmation
message that appears, select [YES] and press the <SET> button. If the network has not been disconnected, the partially copied clips at the copy
destination are deleted. If the network has been disconnected, incomplete clips may remain on the FTP server.
t After copying starts, disconnection errors will no longer be detected. Cancel the copy operation if the copying progress has stalled.
t Contact your FTP server administrator for the amount of free space on the FTP server in advance, as it cannot be checked automatically before
copying starts.
t Whether an error is generated when the remaining capacity of the FTP server reaches 0 depends on the FTP server. If an error is not generated,
cancel the copy operation.
t Clips cannot be copied to an FTP server destination folder that contains more than 1000 clips.
t If the clip is recorded after selecting the main menu → [RECORDING SETUP] → [FILE SPLIT] → [ONE FILE], the clip that exceeds approximately
4 GB per file cannot be transferred to the FTP server.
t To transfer clips using SSH, the FTP server must support SSH.
t Using SSH will reduce the transfer speed.
t To check the transfer result on a computer or another device, refreshing the display on the computer or another device may be necessary.
