First draft version is implemented. Dropbox is used as the file hosting service. It has the following limitations:

  • The synchronisation is only one way, from the server to the client
  • Only files in the sandbox folder (Apps/qtmediahub) are synchronised, no subdirectories are included
  • Only files that don't exist on the (local) client are downloaded (media files content usually doesn't change, but playlists for instance)
  • Only four additional users are allowed access (unless the app has production status granted by Dropbox)
  • Each time "Dropbox" is selected from the mediahub menu a new session is initiated, i.e. user has to enter credentials (otherwise there would be not much to show - having only a daemon in the background wouldn't allow us to use the buzzword "Cloud" easily ;-)
