Description
Is there an existing issue for this?
- I have searched the existing issues
Bug description
I called add_videos on the command line without setting copy_videos.
Symlink creation failed, but instead of stopping, or copying the videos, the videos were cut and pasted (moved) per the printed output.
My concern is not the symlink failure (actually I meant to copy_videos anyway).
This behavior is dangerous - unexpectedly moving video files disrupts file organization designed to maintain experimental integrity.
Is there a way to catch the windows error regarding symlink failure, and copy the videos instead?
Operating System
Windows 10
DeepLabCut version
dlc version = 2.3.0
DeepLabCut mode
single animal
Device type
gpu
Steps To Reproduce
- called
dlc.add_new_videos(config, vids)on existing project (vidsis a list of two videos) - got error below
Relevant log output
Attempting to create a symbolic link of the video ...
Symlink creation impossible (exFat architecture?): cutting/pasting the video instead.
C:\Users\original\path\to\project\videos\videoname.mov moved to C:\Users\projects\thisAnimal\dlcproject-DLC-2021-10-07\videos\videoname.mov
