				xnview, nconvert batch processing
				Posted: Fri Jul 18, 2008 10:32 am

				Hello,
I tried using xnview to produce a batch file but it places all of the file names on the command line for nconvert to process.  I have over 14 thousand files to process.  Is there anyway I can feed a list of files to nconvert and just run the program and come back later when it finishes?  xnview slows to a crawl after the first 1k.  
thank you

				You can use filelist with nconvert

				Could you provide an example of the file list parameter using nconvert?  I really like this tool, it seems that it will work for me if I could just get past this issue.

You can create a text file with the list of all filenames, and use -L filelist.txt
 
			 
			
					
				memory reference error

				I am getting a memory reference error from windows 2003 server.  At instruction "0x00408d48" referenced memory at "0x00000000".  The memory could not be "written".  
Here is my command line: 
nconvert -npcd 2 -size 256x256+0 -ctype grey -corder inter -out jpeg -ratio -rtype lanczos -rflag orient -resize 260 260 -l filelist.txt
Without the filelist parameter, testing on one file like this:  
nconvert -npcd 2 -size 256x256+0 -ctype grey -corder inter -out jpeg -o new_%.jpg -wmfile "DVWM2.png" -wmflag bottom-left -ratio -rtype lanczos -rflag orient -resize 260 260 1127.jpg 
Works.  It creates a new jpg file out of 1127.jpg and adds the watermark contained in DVWM2.png.  
I just need this program to work with a whole directory of over 14k of files.  The param -l filelist.txt would do the trick.  
Please help!

				if it works with one file, it could be that a commandline with "for" works for all files:
for %i in (*.jpg) do nconvert -npcd 2 -size 256x256+0 -ctype grey -corder inter -out jpeg -o new_%i.jpg -wmfile "DVWM2.png" -wmflag bottom-left -ratio -rtype lanczos -rflag orient -resize 260 260 %i
