Windows: robocopy

For Windows you can use robocopy in a custom command.
robocopy is a faster way to copy files under Windows.

This will propably only work for single files but not for file sequences.


You will need two Transcoding Tasks:

  1. task will copy the file

  2. task will rename the file

CODE
exec:
robocopy

params:
<source.directory> <paths.main.directory> <source.filename> ^& exit 0

Notice the ^& exit 0 at the end?
robocopy does not exit with exitcode 0 but with 1 if it was successful … Windows 🙄
That’s why we have to map it to 0 to make this task successful

CODE
exec:
ren

params:
<paths.main.directory>\<source.filename> <paths.main.filename>


Make sure to set the custom command for Windows only if you are using different operating systems.

If everything is setup is should look something link this:
