I got back today from a forest trip where I filmed more than 85 raw sequences. So converting them manually become not an option. I wrote a script for mass conversion of the files. Feel free to give suggestions for improvement or hack your self http://shieldroute.blogspot.se/2013/07/quick-and-dirty-multiply-raw-file.html
My workflow was:
move full card to -> date\1\
-> date\2\
-> date\3\
etc
so the scripts checks only subfolders for a given folder. Then it enters there creates new folder with a name same as file name and converts it using raw2dng.
Resulting structure
date\1\ML_001.RAW
date\1\ML_001\000000.dng
date\1\ML_001\000001.dng
.................
date\1\ML_001\00xxxxx.dng
date\1\ML_002.RAW
date\1\ML_002\000000.dng
date\1\ML_002\000001.dng
.................
date\1\ML_002\00xxxxx.dng
hope someone will find it useful and will be less frustrated coming home with may sequences. There is no fall back safely implemented, but I will added if some one needs it.
Cheers
