    Check out the "Backup To" tab in the Import window.

    I think you need to script it then.

    Why would you want this?

    I need this for to decrease the time to export all the shoot for to masterize a DVD for my client.
    If i export 500 image at the end of shooting i need 20 minutes if i export they when i shoot it, at the end i have all the exportation without waiting.

    Aha, i see. I still think a script could do that for you, although i'm not sure. I've never done that.

    While on the topic, is there a need to shoot RAW then? It seems to me that you could shoot JPEGs and immediately copy the card to a DVD and hand over to customer.

    On the other hand, wouldn't you want some control over what goes to your client and therefor view the images before exporting them to JPEG (which in itself is really easy)?

    While this is theoretically possible with scripting, it would likely create an unnecessary performance bottleneck while tethered. Capture One will dedicate as many resources as possible to the task at hand- when shooting tethered, the file comes in, Capture One reads the EXIF, applies default settings and renders review/thumbnail/focus mask files before showing the preview on the screen. Tossing in immediate processing will likely cause considerable lag.

    However, considering that Capture One already renders a preview file, what if we could just use that preview instead of re-rendering a "processed" JPG? We absolutely can and do. Under the Process Recipe tool, set Format to QuickJPG. This is going to take the pre-rendered (as in, Capture One already viewed the file and generated a preview) file and save it to a new location.

    The drawback is that these files are limited to the height of the cached image preview, which you can set under Capture One > Preferences > Image. If you need to deliver full-res JPGs at the end of the day, you'll have to process those out at some point. Best bet: set up a Smart Album with the criteria:

    Processed is false

    then after a look/shot/product/set is done, navigate to the aforementioned smart album and a quick cmd+a cmd+d (assuming your JPG or QuickJPG recipe is enabled) and away you go; everything happening when the maximum resources were available.

    Hi, thanks, i have set the preview image to 2560px ,now in the recipe, where i can find QuickJPG? Is it JPEG QuickProof?

    If yes, what i have to do to change the folder of Pre-Rendered image?
    Thanks.
