--- Comment #2 from Holger <h.kl...@gmx.de> ---
This really seems as easy, as ripping a CD. But there is a significant
difference: The Audio-CD was there first and doesn't change during the course
of actions.
So what's the point of having multiple scripted folders all over the place, if
all you want to achieve is to convert files? As conversions are almost always
lossy, I strongly recommend against leaving such an open trap lying around.
Moreover the original suggestion involves two copy/move actions, because you
would not want the converted results to stay in the conversion folder. So you
have to select your current working set twice.
Reconsidering the Audio-CD example, what's really needed IMHO is a kind of
filter overlay on the folder, to give an easy copy source, that's deactivated
on leaving the folder, much like Ctrl-i works. Say, I'm in a folder of wavs and
mp3 and activate a wav2ogg filter. All fileextensions of wav change to ogg
(hiding mp3 and other unconvertible files), although no file has been converted
jet. Now I select those I want and drag them over to another folder. Only after
the drop, conversion starts.
