I'm currently testing Downloader Pro and I just love it!
However, there is one thing that eludes me: How do I disable recursive downloading?
Sometimes, when on a photoshoot, I create subdirectories on the SD-card with copies/edits from the pictures. When downloading them in DLPro, I keep getting the Name Clash error on photo's that also exist in those subdirs, even though I select the photo's I want to download. This could be prevented if there was some kind of "no recursive downloading" flag.
Can I do this with DLPro?

You can do this by unchecking "Scan whole disk for known image types" in DLPro's preferences under the "General" tab. You may need to restart DLPro for the changes to take effect.

Thank you for you quick reply.
Unfortunately this checkbox is already unchecked.

It will ignore the folder if it is a subfolder of the image folder but not if it is a sibling folder.
e.g. "\DCIM\100EOS5D\test" is ignored, but "\DCIM\test" isn't.

Yes I was hoping for a function that would do that, however, it is not the case. The subdir (called \work) is still processed. Renaming to test or whatever doesn't matter.

It definitely works on my Windows XP Pro system with DLPro v1.8.1.

"J:\DCIM\100EOS5D\test" is ignored unless "Scan whole disk for known image types" is selected. I did need to restart DLPro after changing this setting in preferences for the changes to come into effect. However, if you use File->Open Source Directory... to access the files DLPro will scan the whole disk anyway because it can't assume the DCF folder structure of a memory card.
