Question regarding output folder and subfolders

Permanently deleted user
Hi!

First off is there a guide/article available regarding sessions and workflow (in particular how people work with the folders)

My workflow based on the folder structure

Capture/ all raw files ingest/tethered to this folder
Selects / All images selected after culling moved here
Outputs / All images exported here

A specific question regarding the output folder, i usually put different size/version/formats in subfolder for some reason C1pro doesn't seem to read subfolders ?

Thanx!

    Paul,

    There are a number of videos that cover these subjects. I think that the recent Webinar session about power usage should be of interest to you.

    I'm not sure what your question refers to. You can create a recipe for each output definition you want to create and then batch process (if you wish) the files into subfolders (or not) in the Output folder or some other place(s), naming the files dynamically as you do so. I'm not sure I understand what you are asking when you mention that C1 does not seem to read subfolders. Do you mean read them AFTER the output is completed?

    He might mean in imported catalogs, if so, you have to click on the main folder and select show folder hierarchy. Not sure if this helps.

    Thank you for the link! Will check it out!

    I have no problems exporting,yes the problem is with C1Pro not reading subfolders in the output catalog, that is what i meant.

    Ah!

    Are you making the output with the intention of adding it to a catalog? The same catalog?

    So that wouodl be, in effect, like round-tripping to Photoshop. There are a number of threads in the forum in which people describe what they do for that - and I suspect one or two videos that will cover it as well.

    I don't use catalogs nor do any round trips. However I suspect you may need to run a check for new images and and import them. I'm sure someone will confirm BenjaminJ's suggestion soon and perhaps expand on how to best cover your requirement.

    I do not understand need of round trip, for external editing of files from C1 there is an excellent tool called, edit with inside C1. Which handles everything perfect and creates variant for you if needed.

    Looping C1 inside C1 is just 2 processing same file via same C1 engine, which makes no sense. The only use case which I can think is using C1 as DAM, but still you are doing that roundtrip for ALL files.

    Well not really, the session folder structure consist of four folders, output being one of them.

    If i export all my outputs in the root they are viewable by clicking the output folder, but since i organize the outputs in folders i have to set a new output folder depending on what i want to view.

    I assume i could set it for each folder and add them as favourites.

    For cataloging LR is useful, but I'm moving away from it to sessions which makes much more sense to me, one session for each client and job, open it and have all the files there, even edited outputs etc.

    Thanx for taking the time to respond, signed up for the webinar and will look for more resources to get my workflow optimised.

    See my response to Grant.

    Question:
    I export portraits (green screen) to psd files, they are put in the root of the output folder. I then edit (remove the green screen) these in photoshop save them, does not C1pro show me the edited psd files if i select the output folder ? This without me importing them to the session/catalog ?

    Paul,

    C1 can output to a PSD file but not display them as editable files or even just as display.

    C1 can work with RAW and commonly used DNG formats, jpg, tiff and png. But not PSD.


    HTH.
