Is there a way to change the working directory?

I’m trying to process a large number of videos that are on a HDD, but I wanted to see if there’s a way to have the files that are being created be processed on a separate drive (in this case, an SSD), then move the completed file to the source folder once it’s done.

Also, I’m aware of the existing option of having the output file sent to the source directory, but wanted to see if it could be processed in another path, then moved to the source folder.

Welcome!

There are several options available for how the GUI calculates the destination path. Look in the preferences → Multiplexer → Destination file name.
