Limit batch conversion input file types when adding folder?

Post by Guest »

The subject pretty much says it all. I've been using Xnview for years now and the batch tool has become pretty good. I don't use it that often but right now I am trying to figure out how to acheive the above.

The add folder works great at recursively adding all image files in in a directory tree and the 'use original path' for output works fine. However, and I am possibly missing something, I cannot see how to limit the list of added files to just one type (eg. .tif). Ideally I would like to only have one type show up so I don't have to manually sift though the list and remove the types I don't want converted.

PS. A great future option, along with the retaining of time and date, would be to retain the state of the archive bit.

I support too this kind of new files filter.

Bump.

This was actually my question but I forgot to login. So am I just missing something on the "input filetype filter" or does this just not exist at present?
