DavidCP Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Hi. I am delighted with Affinity Photos Batch job capability. It's simple and sensible and easy to use. However, (big however!) I can only batch process 7 images at a time. This is just converting PNGs to JPEGs, nothing fancy, not big files. If I load 7 images it works fine. If I load 8 (or, as I wanted to do, 30), Photo goes into the endless spin. Also there is no way I found to abort the job. I had to Force Quit Photo in order to stop the cycle. I gave it plenty of time so it wasn't just my impatience. It just could not deal with more than 7 photos at a time. I looked in vain for a way to cancel the job. This may be just that I couldn't find it. I'm on a MacBook Pro mid 2015 with 16GB of RAM, running OS 10.14.3. I hope it's just something I'm missing and that someone can put me straight on this.

Staff MEB Posted February 11, 2019 Staff Share Posted February 11, 2019 Hi DavidCP, Welcome to Affinity Forums Do you have Parallel processing turned ON in the New batch job dialog (bottom left)? If so turn it OFF and try again. You may also try the latest Affinity Photo Customer Beta 1.7.0.110 with it turned ON. Does it run without issues with the latest Beta?

DavidCP Posted February 11, 2019 Author Share Posted February 11, 2019 Great. Thanks. That did it. And I will also try the beta. Much appreciated. David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
