How 2 move different images to different folders?

I have a PHOTOS folder which I add dated folders(e.g. (2013-02-03_Snow) containing images(RAW+JPEG) and movie files(MP4).

20 min after copying the directory into Photos I would like to Hazel to:

- move the JPEG images to the JPEGS folder(inside (2013-02-03_Snow) and the MP4 files to MOVIES directory inside ((2013-02-03_Snow).

I have studied the “Run rules on folder contents” but the rules I attached create recursive subdirectories and stores the jpegs and movies in the bottom directory.

How do I do this correctly. Thanks.

Here are the rules I set up.

I've already responded in email. In the future, please do not post and email the same issue. Pick one or the other.

In short, as far as I can tell, there's no reason for the subfolder rule and it is causing the infinite nesting folders behavior you are seeing. Get rid of it.
