I'm having trouble with the FTP. Dopus 13.21 If I try and copy a folder to the PVR, I get this error message. 550 directory is exists But the folder does not already exist! If I try and copy a file to the PVR, It copies but when it's finished copying, it gets deleted. > Blockquote > Opening Connection 10.1.1.20:21 > 220 Welcome To TOPFIELD PVR FTP Server > 331 Password required for 7160 > 230 User logged in. current directory is / > 200 TYPE is now ASCII > 257 "/" > 250 Changed to /MediaFiles > 257 "/MediaFiles" > 200 TYPE is now 8-bit binary > 227 Entering Passive mode (10,1,1,20,8,0) > 150 Connection accepted > -137585945 bytes sent in 472.360 seconds (8594.744 Kbytes/sec) > 226 File upload successfully > 200 TYPE is now ASCII > 227 Entering Passive mode (10,1,1,20,8,0) > 150 Connection accepted > 3270 bytes received in 0.329 seconds (8.808 Kbytes/sec) > 226 Transfer OK > 421 Connection time out (60 seconds). > Connection closed ---

Do other FTP clients work when trying the same thing? ---
