Auto watermark files

Post by dralfio »

Hi, xnview is a best program, thank you.

I need to apply a watermark automatically, I can do it manually from tools batch processing etc..etc..
But I would that xbs watermark script for example each 5minutes apply watermark on all photos that are in a specific folder.

For that I could use crontab of windows 10 but I don't know how can I run xnview with right parameters that execute the xbs and so apply watermark

Thanks

You might look at the Hot folder option in XnConvert, which automatically applies the selected actions to new files that arrive in a nominated folder, and see if that would meet your needs...

In XnConvert the Hot folder function is on the Input tab...

I don't think NConvert currently supports a Hot folder option unless it has been added recently, could you check the help file.
