HOTFOLDERS ( subfolder problem)

[eonpluspain]

Hello, first of all congratulations for your great work. I am using the latest version of xnconvert and I have a problem with hotfolder. I have disabled the hot reading of the subfolders but it searches in them, modifying the images. In an older version I didn't have this problem. my problem has appeared when updating to the latest version. any solution? thank you.

'hot folders' process files is disabled?

[eonpluspain]

hot folders is working but all the folders inside the main folder are being watched and their images modified.

[xnview]

could you explain me more about how you use it?

[eonpluspain]

I have a folder named A. Inside there are two subfolders named B and C. All the photos that are stored in the root of folder A are copied with a watermark in subfolder B. Also in subfolder C are They record other images that have nothing to do with the process. The problem is that when upgrading to the new version, xnconvert not only copies photos from root folder A, but also copies photos from folder B AND C. Before, it only copied photos from root folder A, without searching in B AND C.

it seems that you had an old version, 'hot folders' now process the folder and its subfolders

I have had to reinstall an old version where I did not have this problem. Is there a way in the new version to choose if you only want it to work on the folder and not on its subfolders?

in 'hot folders' dialog, you can change recursive flag

I know but it doesn't work. it has to be some mistake.

i've tried.
- i have a folder 'root' with subfolder 'A' & 'B'
- I set output folder to 'A'
- I set 'hot folders' to folder 'root', recursive off
- i add some files in 'root', files are converted to 'A'
- I add some files in 'B', no conversion

so it works

Well, for some strange reason when installing the new version this does not work correctly for me. Could it be that the configuration file is not compatible with the new version?
