  • 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 :)

v0.2 is up.

- Added Timecode option (--useEC)

This one is for you Rainer...
 
thats very nice from you Anders.... thank you a lot...

one more question: In Redalert you can copy the redalert settings for redline in the render window to the clipboard. Will it be possible to add a small box where we can put in additional redline commands? So we could put in onelight settings... ?

thx

rainer
 
this is great,

when do you think your qt or dpx action might be ready to go?

thanks for this

The upshot is that you can use applecript to program the actions, and cocoa bindings to take care of linking the interface to your variables. Makes it very fast to get it working.
 
thx for the infos...

deanan, would be great to export _F proxies out of redalert/redline. With Anders tool would this a great combination....

regards

Hi Anders,

thanks a lot for this tool, this comes in really handy :)
Looking forward to your QT and DPX conversion tool.

..thank god there are guys like you out there, the only thing i ever was able to program was

10 print "hello"
20 goto 10

:)
best regards

How do you get this to work? I have never used Automator. I see this action in the Automator search (left pane), but it won't let me drag this into the workflow.

Maybe I am just old school, but this seems too complicated to me.

Here is a little script, really just a command line, that will search directories below where you are and create proxy files using Redline. You could easily modify this to render out Quicktime files or DPX or anything Redline can do.

for FILE in */* ; do redline -i `echo $FILE` -w 10 --omitNA ; echo "for $FILE" ; done

In Terminal goto the .RDM folder and run this.


Thanks
Dusty
 
Hello guy,
Anyone has an automator action or something quicker than going into redcine for creating quicktime file. I think about something like a program using redline may be without entering in the code.
Thank you,
 
Hi
I am trying to get this action to work but when I click on downloaded file, DVD studio pro opens and nothing else happens, is there something else I need to do.
Thanks
 
search for automator and run the app. The do something like in the attached image. (btw, there's an dumb automator problem that limits the length of time it can run a script and causes problems with long renders. I have a work around coming out shortly).
 
A nice feature would be adding Automator variable support to these actions - so you could for e.g. set your RSX look path or Redline render options in a variable that is passed to the RedRender action.
 
The runtime issue is fixed and will be in the next release.
 
It's part of the latest redalert release. It gets installed automatically as an automator action.
 
Run automator and you'll see them under movies in the library. If you want the actions themselves:
/machd/library/automator.
