Question

How to change directory for VOD files

Hello..

My company has recently asked me to install the Adobe Streaming Server 4.0.  I was wondering if it is possible to have the server software reside on the C: drive, while having my VOD files on seperate 😧 drive.  The staff here wants to separate the software (server in this instance) from the individual flash video files, so they have set up two drives.  Any suggestions here?  Can this be done, or do the files have to reside inside the VOD folder on the C: drive?

    Hi,

    Thanks for your interest in FMS 4.

    Yes , you can have the FMS installation in the C drive and the media files any where else. Go to the FMS installation directory and to the conf folder under it. There is a fms.ini configuration file where we can edit the settings for the vod folder. Find a variable VOD_DIR which is now pointing to the vod/media folder under FMS. Change it to the location that you would like to have.
