Change an output’s filename in Compressor
When you apply a preset to a source file, Compressor assigns a default name to the output file: the source filename appended with the extension of the format used during transcoding (.mov or .mp4, for example). If you want, you can change that name.
In the Filename column of an output row, double-click the name of a file, then enter a new name.
Note: If you see an alert icon
to the left of the filename, the filename assigned to that output row has already been used. Click the alert icon to view a description of the error. See Review errors and warnings in Compressor.
If you want to change Compressor’s default filename format, you can create a custom location with your preferred filename format, then set it as your default location in General settings.
