Move encoded file *AFTER* encoding

Feature details

I need vidcoder to move the encoded file to my video library AFTER it is encoded. If I just encode it to the library, it is sometimes locked before vidcoder finishes.

That would mean you'd need a third location to actually do the encode. Maybe you could use the Post-Encoding section of the Picker window to move the file after it's done.

@RandomEngy you are exactly correct. Sorry for the delay in getting back to this. Lots going on. I envisioned a third folder. Can I setup and save post-encoding settings to move the file? I'll experiment with this a bit. Do you have any suggestions on settings? Say encode to d:\encoded and move do d:\videos when done?

I did a little experimenting and set "Send file to:" to d:\videos and it did not do anything. The file remained in d:\encoded. Ideas?

I think you'd want to put Send file to: cmd Arguments: /C move "{file}" "D:\Destination"
