Hi,

I am new in Hrbrid, I need help to do some settings.

1. How do I create watch folder for automated encoding.
2. Is there have any settings to automate re name output file with my desired settings.

Thanks.
regarding 1.: create the folder and read https://forum.selur.net/Thread-INFO-hidd...id-options "-> misc.ini options -> monitoring folder" and the thread linked there.
the main process is:
  • create misc.ini file with the following content:
    Code:
    [General]
    monitorFolder="Path to folder"
    where "Path to folder" needs to be replaced with the absolute path to to the folder that should be monitored
  • start Hybrid with an additional option '-autoAdd <parameter>'
    This will tell what to do with new files.
    Parameter options are:
    - 'add', which will add a new Job to the job queue with the currently configured settings
    - 'addAndStart' , will create a new job and start the job processing.
The crucial point is that the current setting will be used, so Hybrid needs to be properly configured so that it adjusts to a new source correctly.
So you need to figure that out first settings under "Config->Automation" and the usage of defaults or global presets are usually the way to go.

regarding 2.: Hybrid has some option for output name generation under "Config->Filenames" which allow automatic file name adjustment.
