Hi all,
I hope I haven't repeated a question. I've done a search but couldn't find anything.
At the moment, if I render a bunch of clips out of Redcine and select separate folders, it renders them to 'event001, event002 etc'.
However what I would like to happen is to have the shots rendered out to individual folders with names based on the files. Having the folder named after the actual file would help - EG: A001_c001_071206...
But if we could make it user definable. That would be even better.
EG: A001C001
The reason I am asking if this is possible is because according to Smoke the DPX only hold the first 4 figures as it's tape name, so if you had A001_C001 and A001_C002, smoke would not be able to tell the difference in relation to tapes. So the only other option is to take the tape name from the directory.
If there is an alternative 3rd party option, please let me know. I am currently looking at a way to automate the task of taking the names from the files and renaming the folders, but it's a bit hard when I have know programming ability...
Cheers and thanks in advance
