Chapter 5 Sun MediaCenter Server Utilities 5-5
filename
The name of a file in the form specified by a local filesystem, such as UFS or NFS.
The filename might specify an MPEG file or, for a content package, a tar file.
hostname:filename
The IP hostname of a machine on which filename is stored, plus the filename.
You must supply an argument for source. Unless you use the -m option (for tar file
input), you must also supply an argument for destination. If you are copying a title
from a remote to a local machine, and not renaming the title, you can simply specify
the name of the title as the destination.
smc_copy has the following options:
-f {MPEGTS|MPEG1SYS}
Indicates format of stream to be loaded onto Sun MediaCenter server (MPEG
Transport Stream or MPEG-1 System Stream). There is no default for this option.
By omitting this option, you implicitly request that the server software auto-
detect the title's format. (Sun MediaCenter servers of version number 2.1 and later
support format auto-detection.)
-i
Indicates input is from a Unix filesystem.
-m
Indicates input is a tar file. Used for loading a content package.
-o
Indicates output is to a Unix filesystem.
-p
Preserve the creation time in the destination file. Otherwise, the creation time
becomes the current time for the newly copied file.
-r rate
Indicates the encoding bit rate for a title. There is no default for this option.
-s speed
For titles that contain trick play streams. speed is 1000 for a normal-play, forward-
direction stream. The speed value for a stream of four times normal speed is
4000. Reverse direction is indicated by a minus sign, so that a stream of seven
times normal speed, in the reverse direction has a speed value of -7000. The
default speed value is 1000.
