Chapter 17 Media Assets and Embedded Software
Procedures
Add Multiple Assets Simultaneously to Your Media Library
The amount of time that a batch download operation requires depends on the speed of your connection,
the number of directory levels that you search for downloadable files, and the total combined file size of
all files that you transfer.
Note After you start to import an asset, do not click any browser button or navigate away from this page until the import
is finished. When you do, the import will not finish successfully.
We recommend that you do not use your DMM appliance as if it is a storage server. It has limited capacity to store
files and DMM might not function as designed when space runs low.
Procedure
Step 1 Click the Batch tab.
Step 2 Enter, in the Base URL area, the root-level URL for the batch download operation.
We do not support any use of spaces in URLs.
Step 3 Enter, in the Pattern area, a filename pattern that identifies which files to download.
For example, to download every file that uses the three-letter MPG filename extension, the pattern
is *.MPG.
Note Do not enter the filename pattern to use any unsupported file type.
Step 4 Make choices and enter values to add assets to your library.
Step 5 Click Save.
OR
Click Cancel to discard your work.
Step 6 Stop. You have completed this procedure.
