It is possible to upload VMU saved data. The following form performs such an upload. However, so that this doesn't turn into a site distributing unwanted material, the upload directory is not linked to from here. See Contacting TOOGAM if you would like to retrieve data submitted with this form that is designed to allow uploading of data from a VMU.
*.VMI aids DC Browsers. *.VMS is game's data. Browser links use VMI files which point to VMS files. Have both.

(Note: The Home Page redirects the user to index.jhtml which is http://www.sega.com/index.jhtml so apparently dcreg is in the root directory of www.sega.com and it isn't http://www.sega.com/dcreg/index.jhtml or anything similar like that.)
UploadingIf you'd like to make your own web page that can accept files, you can use vmuupyho.zip which contains some CGI files. You'll need to know how to set up CGI files on your web server (I believe a Perl Interpretor is needed), and modify upload.cgi to tell it where to place files.
These were obtained from the Yahoo! Group called Video Game Systems Online which a certain page (now down, but cached by Google) said was "home of the world's first open-source VMU file uploader." They were located in Uploader! folder of the files section which had, in the files' descriptions, instructions to rename upload.txt and cgi-lib.pl to upload.cgi and cgi-lib.pl. (The files in the zip offered by this site have been renamed as instructed.)
