Folder Structure Preservation
What Forge Is
- A desktop application for automated proxy generation and delivery.
- Recursive watch folders that scan real folder trees, not flat directories.
- Folder structure in, folder structure out — no renaming, no flattening.
- RAW workflows supported via DaVinci Resolve Studio (ARRI, RED, Blackmagic RAW, and standard camera formats).
- Designed to run unattended — define the job once, walk away.
- Local-first: your media never leaves your machine.
The Gap
- Watch folders that only scan one level deep.
- Proxy workflows locked inside a single application's UI.
- Limited control over specific ProRes variants or DNx profiles.
- Automation that breaks when RAW appears in the ingest.
- Enterprise systems disproportionate to the task.
Forge Fills It
- Reliable proxy automation for messy, real-world media.
- Recursive scanning across nested folders.
- Explicit engine routing for mixed formats, including RAW.
- Defined job specs that run the same way every time.
- Runs on your hardware, on your schedule.
Why You Can Trust the Output
Deterministic Execution
Same input. Same spec. Same output.
Explicit Failures
If a job fails, it fails clearly. No partial files marked complete.
Verified Before Exposed
Outputs are only visible after validation.
Full Audit Trail
Every job records inputs, outputs, timings, and environment.
Forge Cannot Lie
There is no silent fallback, no hidden substitution, no altered spec.
Execution Engines
- RAW workflows require DaVinci Resolve Studio.
- FFmpeg is used for non-RAW workflows.
- Engine selection is explicit. There is no automatic switching.

Facilities
Running mixed-format ingests across multiple workstations, with no tolerance for silent failure.
Technical Operators
