    Hello,

    I would like to drop a folder in onto FFMpeg Batch and have it output the results in the Output path, but keeping the relative folder hierarchy of the folder I dropped. For example:

    source folder: d:\music\flac\bob dylan
    which looks like:
    d:\music\flac\bob dylan\album 1 folder
    d:\music\flac\bob dylan\album 2 folder
    d:\music\flac\bob dylan\album 3 folder

    Output Path:
    e:\ALAC\

    I want the folders to result in
    e:\ALAC\bob dylan\album 1 folder
    e:\ALAC\bob dylan\album 2 folder
    e:\ALAC\bob dylan\album 3 folder

    of course with all the media converted inside the respective folders.

    I tried the "Recreate source path" option, but that recreates the entire source path (absolute path). I just want the relative path. Any way to do that?

    Many thanks,
    Allan

    well, it's not ideal, but I solved this issue. I figured out how to mount d:\music\flac\ as a mount point, so now the root of the folder is the flac directory, so when using the "Recreate source path" option, the results are essentially just the relative path tot he bob dylan folder.

    Hi, there's no setting to remove root from relative path.
    Maybe for next release.
    Cheers
