Watch folder search depth?
Posted: Tue Feb 18, 2020 12:50 pm
Hello
First time poster. Congratulations on the new release! I'm trying to create a simple workflow and build from there. I hope it will watch a folder where Sony XAVC (FS7) camera card rushes will copied. I create a Watch Folder node watching the specified folder and what I would like to happen is when new complete/intact folder structures are copied in I want it to create H264 MP4 files out. I have added the 'Accept Files' string of *.mxf to ignore all other files in the folders (I have also tried without this string). For some reason though my jobs aren't triggering. I can get the workflow to work if I use the Submit Files option on the Watch Folder though. Does FFastrans Watch folders support searching in subfolders? I can't see any options to specify or restrict this.
Many thanks in advance
Joel
