FFAStrans forum

Hi All,

Have just started using FFAStrans and have created my first workflow. I have tested the individual steps using 'Submit File(s) to...' option and they seem to work. However when the workflow is live the input watch folder does not seem to pick up anything.

The watch folder is set as follows:

Folder = E:\Input-Create
Accept Files = <<*.mxf>> (have also tried just *.mxf and left blank.
Deny Files = blank
Deny Folders = blank
Checkboxes ticked = System, Hidden, create folder, Recurse, Localise file
Checkboxes blank = Read only, Archive
Limit Filesize = none

I wonder if there is an obvious things I am missing to get the folder to see new events. Any help would be appreciated.

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

Unless i misread your post; "<<*.mxf>>" is definately wrong! I guess you misread that from the help section?

Other than that your monitor should work unless your .mxf files are hidden...?
Anyway, try unchecking "System", "Hidden", and "Localise file". They are normally not needed. See if that changes anything. If it does it might be a bug.

Oh, and please, *.mxf IS the correct way to do it
