Drag and drop the source file into “My_WatchFolder,” and then click the Start Queue button. The encoding process

Note: The preset should be custom and have Export As Sequence unchecked. This will only export the first frame of the
video, which is often black.
Note: Still Image Sequences are not supported as source footage through Watch Folders. If a set of still images is placed in
the folder being watched, each individual still file will be added as a separate item to the Queue rather than than the entire
sequence as a single piece of footage.
