Help explain a sweeper rule

[Robti]

Hi I have only one rule set up to move any series recording to an existing folder for that recording, but this point I am lost on, in the rules

Stop processing

Can anyone explain the last part ?, to a newbie it looks like after it’s finished moving the file it stops all processes
Thanks

For every file (or folder) within sweeper's purview, the appropriate rule set is run on it and stops at the first matching rule. Effectively you can only run one rule on any particular file, so any "catch all" rule has to be at the end of the list otherwise no others would get looked at.

This applies per file, so "stop processing rules" doesn't mean the next file doesn't get looked at, it only means no more rules get run on that file (until the next scheduled scan).

Then: Merge into first folder of same name found under... (Media Root)

You need to upload the image to the forum, not post local links to it. We all know your Humax is on 192.168.0.9 now!

Wow, what a security risk
