Media Access URL's

The MediaManager uses several media access handlers (backends), that can be specified by a Media Access URL in its open() method.

All URL's may contain following query parameters, that are reserved by the Source classes and unused/ignored by the media manager:

• alias: A source specific media alias string.

Currently, following access handlers (backends) are implemented:

• MediaCD - CD/DVD drives (cd, dvd)
• MediaDISK - HD disk volumes (hd)

• MediaISO - Loopback ISO images (iso)
• MediaDIR - Local directory tree (dir, file)

• MediaNFS - NFS directory tree (nfs)
• MediaCIFS - CIFS/SMB directory tree (cifs, smb)
• MediaCurl - FTP/HTTP directory tree (ftp, http, https)
