Testing out a Freeware FTP to virtual drive app:
FTPdrive http://www.killprog.com/indexe.html
Maps a local drive letter to an FTP site. Transcoding FTP hosted media through AVIsource seems to work in initial tests. Source location in script looks like this:
aviSource("Z:\ftpserver.domain.com\source.avi")
You can install the very useful PathcopyEx context menu extension http://www.mlin.net/files/PathCopyEx.msi to simplify working the path out. Adds a "Copy Path to Clipboard" menu item when you right-click.
Using the latest ImageSequence.dll, I was also able to encode an FTP folder of images via:
CoronaSequence("Z:\ftpserver.domain.com\img\*.png", sort=1)
Although I haven't tried it, I suspect the FTP protocol will work faster than the SMB/Netbios for transcoding on local area networks.
