Dear All,
I have a number of videos, a rather.. large number.
I would like to organize them by video resolution into three folders, 1080p, 720p, and others
I could drag and drop meself by that would take rather... long.
anyone know a way to perform this using automator?

Hi,
This is not possible with Automator without script.
If Quicktime read these videos, you can use this AppleScript script:
-----------------
-- *** 3 destination folders ***
-- from the Finder drap/drop a folder between double quotes in each line
set dest1 to (POSIX file "") as alias --<-- 1080p video folder
set dest2 to (POSIX file "") as alias --<-- 720p video folder
set dest3 to (POSIX file "") as alias --<-- others video
set sourceFolder to (choose folder with prompt "Select a folder wich contains videos.")
tell application "System Events"
repeat with tFile in (get files of sourceFolder)
try
set w to item 1 of (get dimensions of (first track of movie file (path of tFile) whose its duration is not {0, 0, 0, 0}))
if w > 1079 then
move tFile to dest1
else if w > 719 then
move tFile to dest2
else
move tFile to dest3
end if
end try
end repeat
