to bring up the Download Manager Toolbar.

Disk Burning

The disks are burned as Data Disk.
Content can be moved from the DMR to an optical disk.
Insert a blank disk into the DMR and select the Disk icon
from the main menu. This will display the Toolbar that
will provide icons for burning media files and folders
to the optical drive. Formats supported include DVD-R,
DVD+R and CD-R.
USB Offload / Upload
The front USB port can be used to move media to or
from the DMR. Connect the USB memory stick and a
folder named USB will appear in the Folder tree in the
left pane. While the USB is connected, media can be
copied to and from this folder.

Streaming

The Watch Live Stream page allows users at their
personal computers to launch client media players,
which will receive and decode the media streams for
playback.

Manual FTP Upload

Under the actions menu for any video there is a manual
FTP icon. Clicking this icon will allow you to manually
transfer a video file and associated XML file to a remote
server. SCP, FTP, and FTPS are all available options for
transferring files. To transfer your desired file, choose
the Manual FTP icon in the actions menu. Enter the
server destination, Port number (optional for non
standard ports), Destination path, and credentials. You
can choose to delete the content after a successful
upload.

Metadata

Metadata tagging allows you to tag a video file with
information such as Author, Title, Keywords and more.
This information is stored in the header of the Video
file. A second copy of this information is stored within
an XML file that is downloaded or transferred alongside
the file. To add metadata to the file, select the video
you wish to edit and click on the metadata icon in the
Actions Menu associated with that file. Then enter your
desired information into the available fields.

Transcoding

The DMR and DMR Studio support file transcoding.
This is a manual post process procedure. To transcode
a video select the transcode icon under the actions
menu for the desired video. Select the desired formats
you wish to transcode from the pop-up menu. You can
choose, WMV, H.264, and iPod formats. The transcoding
will happen in the background and appear as a new
file in your media library. The new file will have the
transcoded video type appended to the beginning of the
original file name for easy recognition. To see waiting
jobs reference the Job Management page.
