Multiple folder check?

Hi All,

I'm try to create a rule that checks 4 different folders/sub folders to close an application if the folders are empty.
I can get the rule working on each folder separately but looking for one rule that checks all 4 at the same time rather than 4 individual rules?

Can anyone guide me in the right direction?

Cheers,

Paul.

Are they all under a common folder?

No not really, they are all in my home folder, but some are sub folders of other folders, and to top it, they are named the same.

Home - Movies - Movies - Complete

Home - Movies - TV Shows

Home - Movies

The folders in bold have media files added at various times through an automated system, once dropped in a certain folder, they get processed with the processed files moved and the old files deleted, once all files are moved/deleted I wanted to the app that does the processing to close, but sometimes there may be a file in the TV Shows folder still being processed when the rule is run on the other folders?

Hope this doesn't seem to complicated?

Yeah, that looks like special logic for a script then. Either that or have all the files to be processed dumped in one folder and then move those to the correct folder afterwards.
