Chapter 3: Batches

File Naming
When you process a single project at a time, you are prompted for the name and destination of
the final output file before it begins encoding. This gives you flexibility when working with a
small number of files.
However, naming each file individually is inefficient for large batches, so Cleaner
automatically names multiple files depending on your settings and preferences. This makes it
easy to process multiple files without having to name each one individually. If you prefer, you
can use the Destination dialog to manually define unique names and locations for files in the
batch. See “Custom Destinations” on page 26 for more details.
When working with more than one file, Cleaner will not overwrite any existing files as it puts
your final processed files in the destination. If a new file has the same name as an existing file
in the destination, Cleaner creates a unique file name for the new file by placing a three-digit
number before the suffix. The number starts at 001 and increases in increments of one until a
unique file name is found.
For example, if you have a movie named Presentation in the Batch window three times and you
are creating QuickTime movies (.mov files), Cleaner produces the following three movies in the
destination folder:
•
Presentation.mov
•
Presentation001.mov
•
Presentation002.mov
Cleaner cannot encode more than 99 files with the same name at the same time. If you have a
batch that contains 100 or more files with the same name, you should check the Append setting
to file name option in the Preferences dialog to ensure that the files have different names. If you
try encoding more than 99 files with the same name at the same time, Cleaner stops encoding
when it reaches the 100th file.
If you are encoding the same file multiple times with different settings, check the Append
setting to file name option in the Preferences to avoid a naming conflict. This adds the setting
you used on the file to the end of the file name, which helps you identify what version was
created with what setting.
Note:
Cleaner truncates file names to 31 characters if necessary.
You can also specify custom names for files in the batch using the Destination dialog. To do this,
double-click the project Destination column in the Batch window and type the desired name at
the bottom of the Destination dialog.
