Create custom destinations
Similar to settings, you can create a custom destination from scratch, or by duplicating an
existing destination.
Create a custom destination
1 Choose New Destination from the Add pop-up menu at the bottom of the Settings pane.
2 In the window that appears, do the following:
a Select one or more transcode settings or a destination from the list.
To quickly locate an item, type a few letters of the item’s name in the search eld.
b Choose a job action for the destination from the Job action pop-up menu.
c Optionally, you can enter a name and a description in the relevant elds.
d Click OK.
The new destination appears in the Custom section of the Settings pane and is selected by
default. The Destination inspector is displayed in the inspector pane.
3 Fill in the job action properties in the Action area.
For example, if you choose the Add to iTunes Library job action, you can choose a playlist and
enter a title for the movie.
Because you’re modifying a custom destination, the properties that you provide for the job
action will be saved for future use.
You can also modify the properties of the setting that the destination uses. For more information,
see View and modify a setting’s properties on page 20.
Create a custom destination by duplicating an existing destination
You can also duplicate an existing destination and then modify its setting properties or job
action properties.
1 In the Settings pane, select the destination that you want to duplicate and then choose
Duplicate from the Action pop-up menu at the bottom of the pane.
The new destination appears in the Custom section of the Settings pane and is selected by
default. The Destination inspector is displayed in the inspector pane.
2 To modify the properties of the destination, do any of the following in the Destination inspector:
•
Select text in the Name eld or Description eld, and then type a new name or description.
•
Fill in the job action properties in the Action area. Because you are modifying a custom
destination, the properties that you provide for the job action will be saved for future use.
For information about job action properties, see Job action properties on page 59.
