Video - Black Box iCOMPEL 2U Series User Manual

Download files from the iCOMPEL to your PC using drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste.
You cannot move files from one folder to another using FTP. Instead, download the file to your PC and then upload it to the
other iCOMPEL folder. Alternatively, move files using the Media > Files & Folders page.
Using Drag and Drop:
Some browsers allow you to drag files off of your PC desktop and drop them directly into a playlist or a folder on the
iCOMPEL. Neither Internet Explorer nor Opera provide drag and drop, but the following browsers do:
Operating System
Windows
Mac OS X
Linux
Note these limitations of drag and drop:
You cannot upload folders, only individual or groups of files.
If you upload a file to a place containing a file with the same name, the iCOMPEL overwrites the existing file.
If the file is for a media type not enabled for the zone, you can upload the file but it will not appear in the playlist until you
enable its media type.
You can drag and drop a file into these locations using the method indicated:
Playlist – Hover over the preferred position.
Folder within a playlist – Hover over the folder.
Folder – Hover over the preferred location.
Folder within a folder – Hover over the folder.
To perform an upload using drag and drop, follow these steps:
1. Open the page on the iCOMPEL that is the location for the upload (either a playlist or a folder).
2. On your PC desktop, select the file or files you want to upload.
3. Hold down the left mouse button.
4. Move your mouse until the cursor is over the upload location.
5. Release the mouse button. A progress bar tracks the upload (you might not see this for small files).
