[B [B O [A [B/exit 5 This is something I have been looking for also. When you want to JPEG 250 24bit frames, that's alot of manual labor. There has got to be some sweet little batch programs out there something like DAAM for DCTV, so that we can batch through ADpro. Better yet, having that built in to the file requester of ADpro would be just the right upgrade. Now that more folks are building 24bit anims with single frame controller, it is a must to be able to archive these files with JPEG and perhaps other ADpro processes. Using the kind of system that DpaintIV has in its load requester that lets you specify the number of frames to be loaded by that root name of the file that has number extensions attaached would be great. Then ADpro could load them one at a time, process, and save out to another volume, ideally with the ability to attach a new name or prefix to identify the processed batch. Love to see it!

There's a way to do it in AREXX, but I'm not that well versed in AREXX to acomplish such a task. I did recall seeing something in the download section that did such a thing – but I can't find it now. Oh well, maybe I'll try to learn AREXX enuf to attempt my own.

I thought that such an AREXX script was included with AD2. I remember seeing it somewhere and it looked like even I, a non rexx type, could set it up.

I will have to look at my ADPRO2 disks, perhaps that did not get installed on my hard drive.

I think the programs called Macromaker, Im not sure if its up here. It works good but isnt Adpro 2.0 compatible. It does work with Adpro 2.0 though. – via Whap!
