directory

Directory specified: A list of the file names only in the

specified directory

not saved. However, it is saved if an immediately

preceding SITE UMMD extended command has been

issued.

For C*.MXF files, some data, such as file header

metadata, may be missing.

•

Depending on the transfer destination directory and the

file type, transfer may not be possible.
