Treat SRT-Files as Sidecar Files
« on: May 11, 2024, 08:35:48 AM »
Hi,

DJI-Drones create SRT-Files that contain information about the flight path. These are stored as Sidecar Files to Videos to support motion tracking and stuff like that.
On Ingest with File Renaming, these files are not renamed by photo mechanic.
I don't need support for those files in Photo Mechanic itself (Such as viewing the flightpath), but having them being moved, renamed and displayed like an XMP-File would be really beneficial.

What file types (extensions) should these SRT files be paired up with?
