macOS Batch Converter (FLAC): Move Destination File on Error not moving failures

[AudibleImagery]

Environment

• macOS: Tahoe 26.0
• dBpoweramp Music Converter (Batch Converter) for macOS: Current
• Encoder: FLAC (Compression Level 8, Verify Written Audio checked)
• DSPs configured (in the FLAC encoder’s DSP Effects dialog):
  • Trim Silence
  • Delete Source File
  • Move Destination File on Error
    • Root = [origpath]
    • Naming = errors/[origfilename]

Goal
When a Batch Converter job is marked Error by the GUI, relocate the destination file to:
<source folder>/errors/<original filename>.flac
Observed

• Conversions that the GUI shows as Error do not result in the destination file being moved to the errors/ subfolder. No moved copy appears under errors/ even though the DSP is set as above.

Steps I took (GUI only)

1. In Batch Converter, select sources and choose Convert To ➜ FLAC.
2. Click DSP Effects and add Trim Silence plus Move Destination File on Error.
   • Root: [origpath]
   • Naming: errors/[origfilename]
3. Ensure Verify Written Audio is checked in the FLAC encoder options.
4. Run a conversion that the GUI flags as Error.
5. Expected: destination moved to <source>/errors/….
   Actual: not moved.

Additional note

• I also tried Multi-Encoder. On macOS, I didn’t see a top-level DSP chain for the entire Multi-Encoder job; I could only add DSPs inside the FLAC child encoder panel. Using the same settings there, I still observed that failed outputs were not moved.

Questions

1. Are the paths above correct on macOS for placing moved outputs under <source>/errors/…?
2. What exact condition triggers Move Destination File on Error in the Batch Converter GUI?
3. Are there any known macOS limitations in Batch Converter (or Multi-Encoder) that would prevent this DSP from executing or creating the errors/ subfolder?
4. If supported, could you share a confirmed-working example (screenshots of the FLAC DSP dialog) so I can mirror it?

Happy to provide:

• Short debug logs from Batch Converter showing runs where the job is Error yet the destination wasn’t moved.

Thanks!
