Using Droplets
Compressor allows you to save one or more settings
or groups of settings into a Droplet. A Droplet is a
standalone preset created by Compressor, packaged
into a drag-and-drop application and saved as an icon.
When you drag source media files to a Droplet icon, they are automatically submitted
for transcoding using the specified embedded settings. The transcoding process
begins, whether or not Compressor is open.
You can drag any number of media files onto a Droplet. You can double-click a Droplet
to open it and see the settings it contains.
Note: Compressor must already be installed on any computer on which you intend
using Droplets.
