So I'm trying to figure this out with no luck.
What I'm trying to do:
I've got about 20,000 SD2 (Sound Designer) files that I'm trying to convert to WAV. I'm using the Quicktime Export Action (http://rhettmaxwell.org/automator/static.php?page=static060801-211556). I want it to leave the new WAV file in the same folder as the source file. The files are categorized in descriptive folders and subfolders.
Method:
1. Get Selected Finder Items (I selected the folders containing all the subfolders and audio files contained within.)
2. Set Value of Variable (I'm doing this to set the current folder as the Quicktime Export has a location setting that you have to fill. This is where is doesn't work.)
3. Get Folder Contents (with "Repeat for each subfolder found" selected.
4. Quicktime Export - I set the "Where" to the Current Folder variable. Export to WAV and Return Result.
Result: I selected two different folders to test. The variable that is that is set is the first folder. It does see all the files and converts them but it puts the results from the second folder in the first as a result of the Set Variable.
Is there something with looping I can do to reset the Current Folder variable for every folder? Any insight will help.
