Hi -
Haven't posted here for a while because haven't needed to as RI just does it thing every day.
One thing though ... he he ... I run a task with a 3 action sequence on downloaded podcast files that goes
Copy (to an archive folder)
Rename
Move (the now renamed file to a folder where it overwrites the previous show file with the same name)
It works well except when the file is big. An Error is reported on the Rename task saying it can't do it because the file is already in use by another process ie the copying of the large file has not yet completed and so the renaming can't get done.
Is there a way to put a time delay between actions?
I guess if I split it into 2 tasks (task 1 copy, task 2 rename and move) that would work.
See, write something down and you get a solution. Delay between actions would be more elegant but the 2 task approach will work.
Thx again for a solid app.
