Welcome to Camera Bits Forums
The recent thread regarding hidden/system directories and files (http://forums.camerabits.com/index.php?topic=1902.0) brought up another related question: Does Photo Mechanic ignore hidden and/or system files during an ingest process?
Yes, it ignores hidden and system files, unless they are known file types (like JPEG, TIF, CRW, NEF, etc.)
Quote from: Kirk Baker on July 23, 2007, 05:23:16 PMYes, it ignores hidden and system files, unless they are known file types (like JPEG, TIF, CRW, NEF, etc.)Would I be correct in assuming the "known file types" are the same that can be set for "assign specific editing applications for each file type"? If so, that would seem to indicate that .ICO files, if hidden, would be skipped during an ingest. This would be a possible solution to a problem I'm having with files such as autorun.inf and image.ico in the root of a CF card which are getting imported.
