How to shorten time between checks using watch folder?

Is it possible to edit the time between checks? I think its 30 seconds now. So for instance it could check the watch folder every 5 seconds?

    Hi there,

    Thanks for reaching out. Working with watch folders usually needs some time for processing. However, when you say the time between checks, what do you mean?

    • The time taken by the application to launch or
    • The time taken to start encoding.

    Could you share more details about the issue?

    Thanks,

    Shivangi

    Hi Shivangi,

    Time to start encoding.

    When AME is launched and a videofile is placed inside the watched folder, it can vary in time to start encoding. I figure AME scans the folder once every X seconds.

    Ideally, it should not scan every time. If the file has appeared in AME that means the scanning has been done.

    Do you get this issue with every file?
