[solved] Syncovery is transfering video file before it is complete
Posted: Fri Jun 10, 2022 2:25 pm
Hello
I am testing Syncovery for pushing a video file exported from Adobe Premiere to an S3 bucket
As the export is a long process (multiple minutes) and asynchronous from the Syncovery scheduler (1 minute), Syncovery transfer a partial file as soon as it detects the file and close the destination object without waiting the file to be complete.
I've searched but not found if it is possible to configure Syncovery for one of those 2 behavior :
1) (preferred) : Start transferring the video file as soon as it is detected, but do not close the object while the file is still growing. This would reduce the delay for the video to be available on the S3 bucket
2) Wait for the video file encoding to be completed before performing the transfer. This is not optimal on very large file as the beginning of the transfert will be delayed until the video file is complete
Understand that I have no control on how the video file is opened by Premiere
Obviously it is not using exclusive access which could allow the 1st case to work if we could configure for example a timeout for checking that the file is not growing anymore.
Thanks
