FFAStrans forum

Hi,
I'm trying to figure out how can I send a source file to next encode node when previous fails.
Because, if encode node fails and I'm using a FFMpeg command node, FFMpeg will change the file going through that node and second node will get "blank" file causing it to fail totally.
Is there a way that second node gets the source file instead? And not the file that's being "encoded" with previous node?

Like this:


Thank you!

Hi veks,
that sounds a little bit buggy to me, @admin to check it out. Are we talking about ffastrans 1.3.1 Version?

Anyway, you can workaround by inserting a populate vars processor and set %s_source% to %s_pickup_file% before the second encoder.

It's not a bug, it's a feature So currently the way to do it is as @emcodem suggests.

I'll try that!

EDIT: It works without a problem!
