brand new to dirmon2 and would like to find out if it's apropriate for
some tasks i need to do. i'm capturing timelapse jpg's to a drive and
am using imagemagick to crop and resize them, saving them to a
different folder. the jpg's arrive in folder one, are cropped and
saved to folder 2. then they are resized and saved again with the
same filename over themselves remaining in folder 2. each new
jpg arrives every 5-10 seconds. the processing and resizing might
take a bit longer than that.
how might i use dirmon2 such that i could intercept the new jpg's
as they arrive and process them? it would seem i'd need to monitor
two folders simultaneously. is this possible?
i'm also concerned about how i make sure all of the jpgs are processed
as the processing takes longer than the captures. i want to avoid
problems because of the processing stage falling behind the capture
stage.
this would be great if i can get it to work as it would cut my time
almost in half. as it is now i have to capture everything and not start
the processing until the capture is finished, that doubles my time. if
i could be processing as the captures are arriving it would be great.
thanks,
