I am trying to see if there is a way to get Apple's Compressor to NOT RENAME files when it processes them. (Adding on "-AIFF" when converting to AIFF, etc.)
I know I can edit the filename before starting the batch, but very impractical for doing large batches.
This was solved in 2013 here Compressor: How do you keep the file name… - Apple Community
But I don't see a way of doing this in Compressor 4.6.2
Any tips?
Thanks!
Here is one way to do it:
for each job, there is one "Action" you can choose to have done after export is finished.
Create one Automator Quick Action, similar to this one - adjusting for the name of the Setting used (you can add other Rename actions in here, too, to cover different settings with the same Automator workflow)
Then in Compressor, choose this Automator workflow to run after compression is done:
NOTE: Make sure that the destination you choose is NOT equal to the source, or renaming would be conflicting with the original video file.
Compressor: How do you keep the file name the same?
