<p>The <code>media_ids</code> folder contains only the metadata of the media uploaded by the user.
It does not contain the media itself.
Furthermore, only the <code>media_ids</code> that Synapse manages itself are exported.
If another media repository (e.g. <a href="https://github.com/turt2live/matrix-media-repo">matrix-media-repo</a>)
is used, the data must be exported separately.</p>
<p>With the <code>media_ids</code> the media files can be downloaded.
Media that have been sent in encrypted rooms are only retrieved in encrypted form.
The following script can help with download the media files:</p>

#
# source_directory: Directory which contains the export with the media_ids.
# target_directory: Directory into which all files are to be downloaded.
# repository_url: Address of the media repository resp. media worker.

#
# Example:
# ./download_media.sh /tmp/export_data/media_ids/ /tmp/export_data/media_files/ http://localhost:8008 matrix.example.com
