    Trouble with Batch Convert Profile on Mac

    I've used dbpoweramp for a looong time on Windows. I'm trying to create a batch converter profile on the Mac version but it doesn't seem to stick. I make the folder selection and filter selection, go to profile, and choose create profile. I enter the name and choose OK. At that point, the profile is created, however, the filter selection is removed. When I eventually reopen batch converter, the profile is selected at the top, however there is no folder selected (as well as no filter selected). What am I doing wrong?

    Update 1: This is the txt file:

    {
    "filters":{
    "File Types":[
    ".MP1",
    ".AAC",
    ".MPEG",
    ".OPUS",
    ".MPG",
    ".MPX",
    ".FLA",
    ".APE",
    ".WV",
    ".MP4",
    ".M4B",
    ".W64",
    ".MP2",
    ".AIFC",
    ".MPC",
    ".OGG",
    ".MP+",
    ".DFF",
    ".CAF",
    ".MPA",
    ".WAV",
    ".AIF",
    ".BWF",
    ".M2A",
    ".MP3",
    ".AIFF",
    ".DSF",
    ".MPP",
    ".M4A",
    ".MPGA",
    ".OGA"
    ],
    "Date":["[date not checked, all files included]"]
    },
    "saveSelection":1,
    "selection":{
    "/Users/SB/Downloads":"SubSelected",
    "/Users/SB":"SubSelected",
    "/Users/SB/Downloads/Sub":"Recursive"
    }
    }

    I'm able to get the folder selection to stick. However, the converter ignores the filtered file type list and includes mp3s.

    Update 2: Spoke too soon. I just reopened and it lost the "Sub" folder:

    {
    "filters":{
    "File Types":[
    ".MP1",
    ".AAC",
    ".MPEG",
    ".OPUS",
    ".MPG",
    ".MPX",
    ".FLA",
    ".APE",
    ".WV",
    ".MP4",
    ".M4B",
    ".W64",
    ".MP2",
    ".AIFC",
    ".MPC",
    ".OGG",
    ".MP+",
    ".DFF",
    ".CAF",
    ".MPA",
    ".WAV",
    ".AIF",
    ".BWF",
    ".M2A",
    ".MP3",
    ".AIFF",
    ".DSF",
    ".MPP",
    ".M4A",
    ".MPGA",
    ".OGA"
    ],
    "Date":["[date not checked, all files included]"]
    },
    "saveSelection":1,
    "selection":{
    "/Users/SB/Downloads":"SubSelected",
    "/Users/SB":"SubSelected"
    }
    }

    Update 3: It seems to keep and respect the filter if saveSelection is 0.

    Re: Trouble with Batch Convert Profile on Mac

    Bugs with loading of Batch Converter profile fixed in new beta build:


    Initially selected profile wasn't loading saved filter values (though cycling profiles would fix it).
