I'd like to see GBPVR have the ability to move converted recordings to a predetermined folder location. For example, if I were to duplicate AND convert my recordings to into the PSP format, I'd like the duplicate files to be moved to a specified folder of my choosing. That way, when I plug in the PSP to transfer some shows over, I only have to look in one place rather than each individual show's folder. Am I making sense?

Yup, move all your conversions to another folder.
Would be really nice for me too. Big Grin
I think it could be done in postprocessing.bat, or postepgupdate.bat, and shouldn't be that hard.
something like:
Code:
If exist d:\recordings\*.psp copy *.mp4 e:\conversions\*.* /s
If exist d:\recordings\*.psp del *.mp4 /s |y
(forget how to search subfolders in DOS, sorry. I think it's /s but not sure)
Note that the second line will delete all .mp4 files from that drive!!!

Actually, there are two ways of achieving this. The first would be post file creation as Reboot described. The second, which I prefer, would occur during the conversion process. This, IMO, cuts down on CPU and HD usage.

I wonder if FFmpeg has a flag to specify the destination folder? If so, couldn't that setting be passed to FFmpeg by GBPVR?

You could easily do this by dropping a one line move command in the PostConversion.bat file.

Because it's hard drive intensive, I would prefer it to run after epg update, at night, when the computer isn't being used for anything else.
I do think my syntax is wrong though, if someone could fix it please?

Edit: This may work
Code:
move d:\recordings\*.mp4 d:\conversions\*.* /s

Exactly! That's why I'd prefer this occur during the conversion process rather than afterwards. I guess I believe in doing things right the first time... (Boy, if my parents heard me say that!)Cool

Well, I don't know anything about editing the postprocessing.bat file but I can tell you that *.psp is incorrect. It should be *.mp4, which also would work for Divx files.

Doesn't matter the filename.ext...it's the command I'm worried about, and the pathing for finding all .mp4 files in subfolders...
