Removing the codec name from a Compressor destination

Whenever you export a Compressor batch, Compressor normally appends the name of the codec to the file, such as "-DV NTSC" for instance. This isn't always desirable.

Here's how to remove it:

1. Go to the Destinations tab.

2. Click the plus button (+) and select Local.



3. Browse to a location.

Important: Do not browse to the same directory as the source files otherwise the new files will overwrite the source media.

4. Under Output Filename Template, set it to Source Media Name. You can use the drop-down button to select template options.



5. Drag the new destination onto the clips in your batch.



6. If you want to use the new destination by default in all new batches, go to Preferences and set Default Destination to the destination you just created.
