    Didn't try that. I did it at the rental company that supplied them, and they just gave me the setup with the pc to upload it.
    But with ftp, it would still be just the 10Mbit connection.
    And i also recall having to convert the dv files specifically with their software...

    RBrowser Lite was the best free one I found, and use with my websites.

    Yes it would still be a 10MBit connection....very slow.

    There are quite a few mac programs that will convert DV to MPEG2 files.
    MPEG2 files are used as standard on DVDs.

    A Program that ships with Final Cut, and DVD studio pro - 'Compressor' will create MPEG2 files in many formats.

    There are also many other programs that will do this.

    Version tracker search for mpeg:

    I know, but the video company asked me for a dv stream file (.dv)
    I offered them to bring in a .m2v or QT movie with MPEG2 compression, but the whole mac thing scared them so they only dared to do it with a .dv file.

    so the client wanted delivery of a .dv file - which they then converted themselves to mpeg2 for uploading to the boxes?

    Well not the client, but the rental shop that was supplying the edjes.
    They were also responsible for the playback.
    I delivered the video that my girlfriend made (she does motion graphics and video).
    Four movies on 4 plasma's, with stuff going from screen to screen. One very wide After Effects comp, haha. 10 hrs render per movie on dual 1.8

    Spec at least one 1015

    When using several machines on a large or important project always make sure one edje unit has the DVD drive (1015).. this helps with file managment..

    tg

  10. the 1015 has a dvd drive onboard

    I highly recommend the 1015 as one of the units for ease of uploading large files.. It has a DVD drive on-board..
