Thx. However, glancing at [the features](https://help.commandpost.io/getting-started/features) of CommandPost, I could not find a function I was looking for.

<p>I want to post-process the video file exported from FCP, using FFmpeg.</p>

Is there a way to detect whether the FCP file export completed or not, via CLI

I want to post-process the video file exported from FCP, using FFmpeg.
Currently, I firstly do "Share" on FCP and wait for completion, then trigger the FFmpeg.
However, I'd like to make these bothering steps into one, using shell-script like as follows:
$ __COMMAND_THAT_WAIT_FOR_EXPORT_COMPLETION__ fcp-output.mov
$ ffmpeg -i fcp-output.mov __OPTIONS__  processed-file.mp4

Is there an equivalent to __COMMAND_THAT_WAIT_FOR_EXPORT_COMPLETION__ above?
