Watch-folders manager

Last updated 9 months ago

Add watch-folders

Select folders in your file browser and drag'n'drop them on watch-folders manager.

Watchtower automatically will detect:

  • camera folder structures and enable FLT checkbox for such folders

  • folders with image sequences inside and enable SEQ checkbox

Watch-folder settings

PATH

Path to a watch-folder. You can click on it and change it.

SUB

Import or ignore subfolder.

REL

Use path relative to project location. This is useful for project templates.

SEQ

Import images as image sequences.

FLT

Flatten sub-folders: all files will be imported in a parent folder. This is useful for camera cards or image sequences that are placed each in a sub-folder.

LABEL

Assign label to a bin and new items imported in that bin. Great, if you want your media be labeled automatically (e.g. Whooshes are green, Drones are blue)
