Question on how to batch conversion with neural filter colorize

@Richard and Max 

I haven't had time to test the following script, it is a quick re-working of another script.

It will batch a folder of files to layered PSD, running a specified action.

All you need to do is change the name of the ACTION and ACTION SET (lines 9 & 10), the spelling has to be exact and is Case Sensitive.

#target photoshop

var actionName = "Molten Lead"; // Action to run, change as needed
var actionSet = "Default Actions"; // Action set to run, change as needed

var inputFolder = Folder.selectDialog("Please select folder to batch the action to...");
var outputFolder = Folder.selectDialog("Please select the folder to save the PSD files to...");
var searchMask = '*.???';
var fileList = inputFolder.getFiles(searchMask);
fileList.sort();

var savedDisplayDialogs = app.displayDialogs;
app.displayDialogs = DialogModes.NO;

var psdOptions = new PhotoshopSaveOptions();
psdOptions.embedColorProfile = true;
psdOptions.alphaChannels = true;
psdOptions.layers = true;
psdOptions.spotColors = true;

for (var i = 0; i < fileList.length; i++) {
    var doc = open(fileList[i]);
    app.doAction(actionName, actionSet);
    var docName = doc.name;
    doc.saveAs(new File(outputFolder + '/' + docName.split('.')[0] + '.psd'), psdOptions);
    doc.close(SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES);
};

app.displayDialogs = savedDisplayDialogs;

alert('Script completed!' + '\n' + 'Files saved to:' + '\r' + outputFolder.fsName);

1. Copy the code text to the clipboard
2. Open a new blank file in a plain-text editor (not in a word processor)
3. Paste the code in
4. Save the text file as .txt
5. Rename the file extension from .txt to .jsx
6. Install or browse to the .jsx file to run (see below)

If these simple instructions are too abbreviated, you may need to read on...

"However it does not have colorize this option at 4 Preference."

On the left side under Preferences you have checked Run Action, thats why drop down lists are available to you. Drop down lists allows you to choose action set and action to run while batch processing. First drop down list is for action set, second for action. On my screenshot Set 1 is action set, Colorize BW is my naming convention for action and Neural Filters is action step that must be manually recorded.

In short, you must record action step Neural Filters and use it while processing photos.

By the way, do you follow some instructions?

Step 4 is for Action Sets/Actions that you have created or Action Set .atn files which you downloaded and installed.
