Sun MediaCenter Server Utilities
This chapter describes the utilities shipped with the Sun MediaCenter software.
Sun MediaCenter software offers a variety of means to transfer video files. See
Section 2.4 “Content Loading” on page 2-5 for a discussion of the alternatives.
In this chapter and elsewhere in this document, a title refers to a piece of video
content, such a movie. A title is stored on a Sun MediaCenter server as the set of files
that make up a piece of content. The name of a title is but one attribute of a piece of
content. When you specify a title name for file transfer or for removal, all attributes
of that title are transferred or removed. See Section 6.2 “Video-File Attributes” on
page 6-4 for a complete description of title attributes.
5.1 Setting a Title Access Control List
The Sun MediaCenter server software enables you to set an access control list (ACL)
on a per-title basis. This type of ACL, along with server ACLs for titles and Content
Manager sessions are described in Chapter 9 “Access Control Lists.”
