Hazel Stopping Short...

I have hazel evaluating a quick rule (color yellow), then executing the following:
- growl notification "start"
- handbrakecli ipod format where output = another folder
- growl notification "midway"
- handbrakecli appletv format where output = another folder
- growl notification "done" [KEEP NOTIFICATION ON SCREEN]
- change color to gray
- move file to another folder

Hazel is doing everything but the last step -- she's not moving the gray colored files to that target folder. The preceding encode is working just fine (code below).

Any thoughts, Mr. Noodle, on why Hazel is not crossing the finish line? She thinks she is finishing, as she isn't throwing any errors. When i use the eyeball tool, the files she has encoded are (properly) not triggering the encode rule. I wondered if the "keep notification on screen" was causing her to not finish, but no, she's taking the next step of coloring the file gray and then starting on the next file...

Thanks!

appletv encode status:

Code: Select all: 3/29/12 9:41:36.630 AM [0x0-0x21021].com.noodlesoft.HazelHelper: [09:41:36] libhb: work result = 0 3/29/12 9:41:36.794 AM [0x0-0x21021].com.noodlesoft.HazelHelper: Encode done! 3/29/12 9:41:36.873 AM [0x0-0x21021].com.noodlesoft.HazelHelper: HandBrake has exited.

Are there any log messages from the hazelworker log? I'm guessing the move operation is failing for some reason. Also, turn on debug mode (see sticky article near top of the Support forum) and then check the logs again.

Love the debug logs -- especially the prediction. Very cool.

But bad news: Hazel still isn't moving the file. She's also not growling that ripping stopped, nor signaling that she completed running the rule. Here's everything in the log for my test movie "Changeling". Note that there is a rule that moves the ATV encoding from /4-atv-to-copy to a server address. But this rule should be moving the .dvdmedia file from /2-rip to /5-end-of-the-line.

Looks like the exported Hazel rules have some binary in them, but I'd be happy to share those and/or screen shots via DropBox...
