OM processing hidden files?

EDIT: I solved it by selecting the filetype in the keyed inlet of om-directory. It would be good to know though if OM now reads hidden files from folders by default. Thanks!

Dear all,

I just switched to OM 6.9 and, besides the MIDI issue (which I am trying to fix by reading the forum), I have a more urgent issue, since a few patches in 6.6 are not working anymore. I have in particular the following problem: I am doing a batch process with two SDIF files processed in parallel from two different folders, recalled by om-directory, and it looks like OM is processing the “DS store” hidden file (see the error message in the screenshot). I have never had this issue in previous versions of OM, any quick way to fix it?

Thank you,

All best,

Gabriele

OM should not read hiden files by default, except if the keywork :hidden-files is set True
If it is not the case, it will be fixed. Meanwhile, you’re doing well in using the “type” input.
Best,
