Hey z_o_o_m,
I'm testing the Folder Monitoring feature in the premium version. I tell it a folder, created a selection profile, but it doesn't recognize anything in the specified folder. Is it not supposed to say "You have to set up a profile (Selection profiles)" in Settings/Misc/3 still? That's what it says. I tried empty for all, and tried adding ".rar" in the Extensions menu. Still doesn't recognize anything in the folder.
It should also be noted that I can drag files on top of FiU and it starts working automatically with my selection profile.
Thanks,
dadarkda

Hi z_o_o_m,
Actually I paid for the premium version. I just did it under a different name than dadarkda. ;D You mentioned I might have to restart the program for it to work. I made sure I did that, and the program says "= Registered =." Under Settings>Misc>3 the program allows me to check Active. Does it do that even if Premium isn't active?
Thanks,
dadarkda

I see ...
Well, then it should work ;)
I am currently away from my computer, you have to wait few days ...
Anyway, it is allowed for sure ... so make sure
1) you set the directory properly
2) set a profile in Settings->Hosting profiles
3) copy any file into that folder

Okay, I double-checked everything.
I set up FiU on a separate system from scratch too, added the registration key.
When you mention "2) set a profile in Settings->Hosting profiles," is "Settings->Selection Profiles" the same thing? That's what I see in this version, so I set it up under there. I also get the red text "You have to set up a profile (Selection profiles)" after I set everything up. Is it supposed to still say that? Also, I am able to check and uncheck "Active" on the Folder Monitoring screen, so I assume the program understands I'm allowed to use this feature.
I understand that I might have to wait until you're back in a few days. :)
UPDATE: I just tested FiU on the other system and it works now! I'll let you know if there's another hiccup, but it seems fine now. Thanks.

Great ;) I am glad it works. Anyway, if any problem, don't hesitate to contact me.

Z,
I am having trouble getting consistent behavior with the Folder Monitoring. It seems that it misses files a lot when I move files over to the watch folder using the windows cmd "move" command (inside a batch file) . But when I use Winodws explorer to manually drag and drop the files into the watch folder, it works fine. Anyway you can help with this would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
dadarkda

I will test it

Okay. In case you have to do some coding, I want to let you know something: personally I would be happy with a command line-based interface with FiU for uploading, if it was easier than fixing the watch folder issue. For example c:\fileuploader5.exe -file1.rar -file2.rar etc., (being able to use *.* would be very nice) something like this, so that I could use it in a batch.
My point is whatever is faster or easier for you, I just want to be able to use it in an automated system with 100% reliability.

this alredy should work ;)
you can run "fileuploader5.exe file1 file2" ;)

I didn't see your message, I tried to do that earlier and saw it worked. :)
I'm going to test it more later (going to see how many files at once it can handle, not sure what limitation DOS has on the length of the command).
I saw you replied 9 minutes after I posted! Thanks for being so fast and available Z, I appreciate it.
