Strange Asset Names

[Michael Sellers]

Since upgrading to DMM version 5.2.2, when an asset is added to the Media Library as a local file that is uploaded, the Asset Name field displays C%3A%5Cfakepath%5C* with the * being the name of the uploaded file.  If added as a URL, this doesn't happen.  Any suggestions as to why this is happening, and what to do about it?

Thanks.

Hello,

You may be running in to an issue caused by Internet Explorer.

Try this:
Internet Explorer, Tools, Internet  Option, Security, Custom.
Find the "Include local directory path when  uploading files to a server"
Click on  "Enable"

Upload a new assett and see if the problem persists.

Also here is a link to the Compatibility Information for DMS.

As a general rule of thumb use:

Firefox for the DMM, SNS, DMP, MXE

Internet Explorer for the TCS, AS series encoders.

Best Regards,

Keith
