Invisible files included in GUI and CLI outputs #785

Open bravoalphatango opened 2 months ago

Hello,

When I drag and drop folders of files into the CLI and GUI the output will include invisible files — which of course fail every part of whatever policy I am using. Is there a way to avoid this?

Here is an example of the CLI output:

It makes sense to wish to avoid hidden files especially automatically created files but there is currently no option for not handling hidden file, all files in the directory are analyzed. Added to the "wish" list (no sponsor for it so no idea about when we have free time for it). Workaround is to manage directly the list of files in a script and send to MediaConch only the files expected to be analyzed, one per one.
