Media Convert is copying instead of moving files

[Q-Droid 989]

My sync temp path is on the same filesystem as the media but I've noticed that when a convert job finishes it copies the files from temp to perm instead of moving them. I haven't checked to see if other operations using temp paths are also copying files exclusively. Auto Organize does have transfer options to Move or Copy though I think any relocation should try to move first then copy if it can't.

Hi, yes this is normal because sometimes there could be multiple files involved and the process has to be able to handle potential transfer failures and be able to try again later. For cases where there is only one file though, we might be able to look at using a file move operation as an optimization.

Thanks for the response.
