.hidden files

[elpanetidio]

Hello all,

any ideas regarding FCP's (Mac) hidden filles that creates when you render a sequence?

The case is the follows:
I know that with FCP 6.0 does not create .files while with FCP 6.04 it does create while rendering.
That creates a huge data that needs to be deleted afterwards.
I know there are scripts or programs that can deal with cleaning afterwards but I would like to prevent them from being created in the first place.To avoid disk fragmentation as well.

Any ideas to prevent the hidden files for being created in 6.04 version?

cheers,
elpanetidio

Not sure what you mean. Any temp files that might be created during a render should automatically delete themselves when the render is complete unless there's something up with your configuration.

I've never experienced or heard of "hidden files." The renders are in that folder on your scratch disk folder.

They are necessary.
