Re: FTP problems

Of course :-) Like I said, I have a folder on the ftp server where I can test. And nothing happens when I drop a new file in it. Of course, as we have no idea what is going on, we do not know if this is a problem with the connection or anything else. I can browse the folder but I am not able to uplo...

Re: FTP problems

Had to use a parallell folder as the original destination folder have a script attatched that will move the file to a new destination before the ftp monitor will be able to detect and download it. But still no results. Seems like the ftp monitor does not detect anything. Don't know how that is relat...

FTP problems

How can I get a proper log of what is going on during an FTP session? "Error writing file!" is not good enough to figure out what the problem is...

When clicking on the browse button, I get the correct folder on the ftp server and I can write to it.

Replace special characters in filenames

I would love to see a way for FFAStrans to clean the filenames. It would be good to clean out anything besides letters and numbers in the English alphabet. We have some extra letters in Norway and they sometimes create problems. It could be done according to a replacement table that we can add to ou...

Re: Aborting Jobs Issue

This worked for me too :-) I had an aborting job hanging. It had somehow tried to convert a thumbnails.db file and was not able to abort the job properly.

Not able to force 16x9 on SD material

I am running some SD material through the system, and I checked the box in the MP4 delivery to force 16x9 on SD material. But it still comes out as 4x3 - at least when playing in VLC... Windows Media Player and QT don't even want to play the video, only audio :-)

Re: Getting watchfolders to watch

Looks like it worked! Will test more. I have some SD content that needs de-interlacing :-) Is there a way to take the SD 4x3 content and force setting the 16x9 flag? (no reformatting - it is just a playback flag). Will check the de-interlacing. An earlier test failed to correctly do it. Could be con...
