Exporting to old folder after one image is exported to designated folder

DxO PureRAW Feature requests
1

I always export to a different folder on each use. I shoot sports and I use DXO prior to using Capture One. I always select the ‘Capture’ folder in each Capture One session as the target folder. I hit process and the first image goes to the folder I selected, that is great. After that all the images go to a folder for the previous session, which is a real pain. This is on a Mac.

Ideas please.
Thanks
Simon.

Looks like something that DxO support should know about → new ticket.

So far, I’ve seen DPR export to the folder I used last, which seems to be an expectable pattern. What I understand from your post feels very strange to me.

Can you post a screen capture of your target settings?

Sorry but I can’t work out how to include a screenshot!

Here’s how to take a screenshot:

Thanks, I tried that but it just came up as script, didn’t look right.

Here they are. Top one shows target folder. Second shot shows where they all bar one ended up. If you look at the very bottom, you can see the same time on the two different folders. Pre Season is where I wanted them.

Thanks again.

Just found out I can only post one image. Hope you can work it out.

PureRAW exports to the folder that you define in the output settings.

The main choices are

  1. a subfolder of where the original RAW file is
  2. a custom folder like shown in the first screenshot

In a typical CapOne Session, you’d probably want to select the first possibility and send converted files to e.g. “Selects”, from where you then export, with CapOne, to your target output folder(s)

If you want to send PureRAW output files directly to “Twitter”, “SmugMug” etc., it’s best to put the RAW input files in the “Output” folder, which does not really make sense unless your workflow already works that way…

That is what I have done. I select the ‘Capture’ folder in the Capture One session as you say.

Yesterday I had 150 images to edit.

The problem was the first image went in the Capture folder that is great, however the remaining 149 images went to the previous folder I had used.

This happens every time I put images through DXO Raw

It sounds like your “custom folder” selection is not persistent on subsequent image exports.

What happens if you select all your RAW images in the image browser, after you’ve done the edits on individual images, but before you enter the custom folder you want to use?

Can you post a screenshot of your export dialog?

There’s one “upstairs”
