Simple DCP Automation

Post by rprovenzano »

Hello to all, and excuse my english please.
i wonder if it is possible to make some watchfolders or coding for automation. I usually have the same kind files given from the clients (prores Scope or Flat + 5.1 enbedded into it) and i would like to make it no or less time consuming.
Hs anyone already done that or can guide me to make it possible please.
i hope i've made myself clear enough.
thanks to all
Romain.

There are CLI interfaces for the necessary functions. Most operating systems offer droplet or watchfolder options.

This manual is probably not up-to-date, but you can always come back here or ask Carl directly for more help.

For re-occuring jobs, you may also check DCP-o-matic's template function.
