A watch folder lets iFlicks pick up videos added to a selected folder.
- Open the watch-folder section of iFlicks settings.
- Add the folder you want to monitor.
- Choose whether new videos should start processing automatically.
- Check the preset, destination and any rules that apply to those videos.
- Add one completed test file and follow it through the queue.
Use rules to customize metadata and processing settings for a particular folder. Conditions based on Original Path keep those rules from affecting unrelated videos.
For initial testing, keep input and output in separate folders and leave source-file deletion disabled. If a file is not picked up, confirm that the folder or network volume is available and that iFlicks can access it.
