# Video Files
|
||||
|
||||
WROLPi creates several files when downloading a video:
|
||||
|
||||
1. A video file.
|
||||
2. Caption files. The suffix may be prefixed with the language like so: `.en.vtt` or `.es.vtt`
|
||||
3. An "info" json file. This file contains large amounts of information about the video: Channel name, Source ID,
|
||||
comments, Like count, etc.
|
||||
4. A poster file (thumbnail).
|
||||
|
||||
These files all share the same filename but have different suffixes.
|
||||
|
||||
| File Suffix | Purpose |
|
||||
|-------------|------------------------------|
|
||||
| .mp4 | The video. |
|
||||
| .vtt | The captions. |
|
||||
| .info.json | Information about the video. |
|
||||
| .jpg | The poster (thumbnail). |
|
||||
|
||||
Video files are named using three parts:
|
||||
|
||||
1. The Channel Name.
|
||||
2. The Published Date (upload date).
|
||||
3. The Source ID (a unique string of characters linking to the video, i.e `0xfMLNVFq2Y`)
|
||||
4. The title of the video.
|
||||
|
||||
The above order is important, it allows the videos to be viewed chronologically in the file browser. The Source ID
|
||||
is important because it prevents a conflict if a Channel uploads a video with the same name on the same day.
|
||||
|
||||
Example file names for a video:
|
||||
|
||||
```

Epub files are desired as ebooks, though some support for Mobi files is provided. Reasons why WROLPi supports Epub:
|
||||
|
||||
* Epub files are simple. An Epub file is a zip file containing HTML files.
|
||||
* Third-party support for reading Epubs is much more feature-rich.
|
||||
* Images are files in the Epub zip.
|
||||
* Device supports for Epubs is nearly ubiquitous.
|
||||
* Because an Epub contains HTML files, it makes it easy to display them in a web browser.

# External USB Drive Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
WROLPi expects a single USB drive to be mounted at `/media/wrolpi`. However, multiple drives are supported. WROLPi
|
||||
uses special directories to know where to place downloaded files. The config special directories cannot be changed
|
||||
and WROLPi will always look for it at `/media/wrolpi/config`
|
||||
|
||||
The default special directories are the following (the inputs are disabled because the "Edit Directories" toggle
|
||||
is not checked):
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## 2+ drives
|
||||
|
||||
As of the writing of this article, WROLPi partially supports multiple drives. The _primary_ drive must be mounted to
|
||||
`/media/wrolpi`, the configs will be written to this drive. The other drive must be mounted within `/media/wrolpi`.
|
||||
|
||||
If you wanted your _secondary_ drive named "secondary", you could mount it at `/media/wrolpi/secondary`. Linux will
|
||||
ensure the files are placed in the correct drives.
|
||||
|
||||
### Migrating from one to two drives
|
||||
|
||||
Assuming that you have a WROLPi with a single external hard drive, and would like to add a second drive, follow these
|
||||
steps.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Mount the _secondary_ drive to some path in `/media/wrolpi`. We will assume you use `/media/wrolpi/secondary` for
|
||||
this example. Follow this pattern for all new drives.
|
||||
1. `mkdir /media/wrolpi/secondary`
|
||||
2. `mount /dev/sdb1 /media/wrolpi/secondary`
|
||||
2. Decide where WROLPi will download files.
|
||||
1. WROLPi will download videos to `/media/wrolpi/videos` by default. If you want WROLPi to save new videos to
|
||||
the secondary drive, edit the "Videos Directory" in `Admin > Settings > Special Directories` to something like
|
||||
`secondary/videos`.
|
||||
2. Do this for all special directories.
|
||||
3. You can keep all special directories in the _primary_ drive, WROLPi will still search the _secondary_ drive for
|
||||
any new files.
|
||||
3. Make the drive mounts permanent by modifying `/etc/fstab`:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
/dev/sda1 /media/wrolpi auto defaults,nofail 0 0 # primary
|
||||
/dev/sdb /media/wrolpi/secondary auto defaults,nofail 0 0 # secondary
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
4. Verify that the mounts are correct by rebooting.
|
||||
- `sudo reboot`

|

3. Reboot: `sudo reboot`
