  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Just made a small helper app to do the following:

- Enable you to double click a R3D file in the finder and have it open in RED ALERT.

- Give all R3D files a nice default icon, and "REDCODE RAW data file" file description.

- Batch create reference qt's from multiple R3D files.

All features will most likely be in a later build of RED ALERT, so this is just until that happens. I just missed those features myself and made a small app to fill the gap.


Download it here if you like: http://redrental.dk/redportal.zip
 
thank you for this.
Great feeling to have users like you in our community.

aaaaaaaaaaaand if you could make a conform app for redci...no no just kidding.
 
And here's an icon you can use for your R3D files.

Download the archive here - open it and select the R3D icon on your desktop and click cmd+i. Select the icon and click ctrl+c. Select your R3D files, click cmd+i, select the icons and click ctrl+v. Done! :-)

Disclaimer: This icon is not an authorized R3D icon. I've taken the liberty of using the official RED icon (from REDCINE). Let me know if that's not ok with you guys.
 
No need to paste the icon or change the default handler.
I updated the app to do this automatically for all R3D files.

Sorry how do we update the app to this automatically?
I am lost, nothing new in that!

If you already changed the default handler for .r3d (Or GraphicsConverter has done it like in my case) you will need to do it like in my video above.

So to get the icon and the file description appering automatically, you need to download the latest version of my little app, change the default handler again (Using CMD+I) and restart the finder.

Then all .R3D files will have the icon, file description and open in red alert.

Hope this helps :-)

You are great at spotting my Darker sides :-)

Actually I did a Time Machine system recovery and the FCS system ID was complaining and wanted my FCP upgrade serial.
Unfortunately not something I brought with me.
I've been on the upgrade bandwagon since FCP 3. It's cheaper but unfortunately you need two serials to keep it happy.

Copy and paste sure beats typing it manually.....
