Batch Converter Plug-In User Interface

User Interface Overview

File List Table

The Batch Converter Plug-In consists of a single window showing the current list of files to be batched.

Each column for the files listed holds the following information:
1.	Source: This is the filename of the original file to be morphed. If you hover over the name with your mouse it will show you the full path of the source file.
2.	Voice alias: This is the voice that will be used in morphing the file.
3.	Destination: This is the morphed file that will be written. If you hover over the name with your mouse it will show you the full path of the destination file.
4.	File Format: This is the file format of the destination file.
5.	Settings: This is the settings of the file format for the destination file.
6.	Progress: This is the current state of the file in the list. Files that are added will be set in the "Waiting" state. Any file in the waiting state will be processed when the "Convert" button is pressed. Files that have errors while processing will show "Error". Hovering over the progress state will show additional information about the file including any error messages.

Right Clicking on a file in the table will bring up a menu with the following options:
1.	Modify Current File...: This option brings up the Add Files dialog with the settings for the current file. You may then modify the selected files settings within the dialog.
2.	Delete File: This deletes the selected file from the list.
3.	Move to Top: Move the selected file to the top of the list. When converting the files at the top of the list are converted first.
4.	Open Destination Folder...: Opens the folder that the destination file has been written too. This is only visible if the currently selected file has been processed.
5.	Play Destination Folder...: The default media player is launched to play the selected output file. This is only visible if the currently selected file has been processed.
6.	Play Source File...: The default media player is launched to play the selected source file.

Dragging files from Windows Explorer and dropping them on the list is supported. Valid file formats will be added and the destination voice and format will be set to the last used settings for all the dropped files. Files can later be changed from the File, Modify Current File menu item or right clicking on the listed file in the table.
