Cache size

Post by enka »

Hello,

I'm new to FFAStrans and i'm currently using it to convert audio files using ffmpeg node.
I will have to convert a huge amount of files and i would like to know if i can use the cache or if it's better to disable it (check "remove monitored file record from history cache") and use a command executor to delete processed files.
Can the cache manage 10000 or more files ?

Thank you,

Hi enka, thank you for using FFAStrans and welcome to the forum!

The option you refer to is deprecated. See alternatives in the help section of the "Command executor"-node.

FFAStrans use small single files as cache file stored in a directory. So this is more a OS limitation than FFAStrans. So for FAT32 it's 65,534 and for NTFS it's 4,294,967,295. So if you're using NTFS your good by a large margin.
