Nconvert not replacing (copying over) the image it created
Posted: Sun May 02, 2010 9:42 pm
Using: Rainmeter1.2 380 64 bit on Windows 7 x64, Nconvert x64
Hi, I am using nconvert to output images for desktop wallpaper in Rainmeter. The output size is 1920x1200, and the image turns out to be a little over 6MB. My problem seems to be with nconvert or the way I am using it:
If the desktop wallpaper image does not yet exist, nconvert creates the image as expected, but if the image already exists nconvert does not copy over it and replace it. I tried setting all the processes to run as Administrator, but this did not help. I first tried it in the Windows directory, and I have also tried it in my user directory without changing the behavior.
I had posted a similar question in the Rainmeter forum, but it looks like it might be more nconvert related: http://rainmeter.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=3857
Anyone else have trouble getting nconvert to copy over the file it makes?
Thank you!
