Hi guys,
i have a problem with copy() function. With small files, it works fine, but bigger files (about 4GB ) are interrupted at variable size (same size for the same file, but different size from other files). The drive is NTFS formatted and there are a lot of free GB.
PS: the script is for premiere, but i think the issue is not software related.
Thank you!
Copy() function doesn't work with big files

A better approach may be to use instead, and write OS-level commands to copy the file. This way is more robust and much more flexible.
Code: Select all
system.callSystem()

Ops, sorry for the delay and thank you. I posted in several forum and i partially resolved with a workaround (execute a .bat)zlovatt wrote: ↑May 7th, 2019, 4:47 pm A better approach may be to useinstead, and write OS-level commands to copy the file.

Now, i have some questions:
1- the callsystem() is available also for premiere pro? Searching, i read that it doesn't work in premiere, but there is a similar function, something like "window.cep.process.createProcess()"..do you know anything about this?
2- also for premiere pro, is possible tu use system.osName to know if the running os is win or mac?
3- the script i'm writing, copy a lot of file that has been used in the project, in a folder...with systemcall() [or window.cep...].
is a good idea to run the systemcall throught a for loop? (each iteration is a single file copy)
Or is better to make a batch file (win and mac) with all the copy() files command and then run it once?
Thank you again and sorry for my english
