Script to take RAW and run recipe to TIFF 16bit

I looked in this forum for a script to take RAW capture files and automatically run a recipe on them to end up with 16bit TIFF files on the fly and can not find one unless I am searching for wrong keywords. Can anybody help me?

Thanks, Mark

  I think that the exact thing you wnat isn't here, but there are a number of recent discussions would give you the material to go this - look for threads about Capture Done scripts and processing recipes.
  
  one thread:
  
  You basically want to make a applescript, set it as the capture done script, the script should set or adjust an output recipe, and process the captured image with that recipe.
  
  Topics to search for: Capture Done, Process, recipe
  
  I think SeanMurp and myself have answered a few questions in this general area.
  
  If you create and post a draft script, then others will help you fine tune it.

  With some more research I found that Apple Automator was able to make a script that watches a folder, as the RAW file is saved to it from Capture One, it converts it to a 16bit TIFF file. It even removes the RAW file so I do not end up with duplicate file quantities in the folder. Works on the fly, perfect!

  I'm curious to seee how this might be done with Automator; the Automator library of actions doesn't include Capture One. I'm guessing that the RAW to TIFF conversion is done with Photos or Preview, unless Automator calls an Applescript that calls C1.

  Ended up not using the recipe at all. Did it in Mac Automator.
  
  I created a watched folder (folder action), it is the folder that all the captures from Capture One go to. Then I have it "Change the type of Images" to a 16bit TIFF. It saves it in the same folder and even overwrites the RAW file.
  
  
  
  The only reason I am shooting in RAW first is because the shooting controls (for my camera) in Capture One only allow me to shoot in 8bit TIFF.

  That certainly is less work to set up.
  It's worth noting that something in Apple's OSX is doing the conversion from RAW to TIFF, not Capture One. Not sure if that matters to you.
