Create Droplets

You can save one or more settings or groups of settings in Compressor as a Droplet. A Droplet is a
standalone preset packaged into a drag-and-drop application and saved as an icon. Simply drag a
source media file onto a Droplet to launch a transcoding session, without opening Compressor.

Drag selected source

media files to a Droplet

to transcode them.

Compressor offers two simple methods for creating Droplets: using the Save Selection as Droplet
button in the Settings tab, or using the Create Droplet command in the File menu.
