  • 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 :)

Redemption by Surreal Road

Build 5 is now available (the Windows version is still unchanged).

Noteworthy changes are the separation of metadata and user colour settings, and the addition of multiple batch-processing templates.

Changes:
Code:
1. Import update method now matches by Reel, Camera, Clip, Start TOD Timecode and Date rather than filename.
2. There are two sets of colour parameters, one for the clip’s metadata and another, user-defined one. Importing CSV files will only write to the metadata parameters.
3. Added button to paste colour parameters from metadata.
4. Added button to reset colour parameters to defaults.
5. Added an ID field to clips table for indexing purposes.
6. Added infrastructure for multiple project tracking (note multiple projects are not implemented yet...)
7. Added template tags for metadata values. For example {ISO Meta} will be replaced with the value stored in the ISO metadata field. {ISO} will be replaced by the custom ISO value.
8. Added ability to copy and paste values via a “colour clipboard”.
9. Redline-specific options have been placed into their own tab under the revamped “Batch script generation” area.
10. You can now create and work with multiple templates.
11. Added some text to the UI to make the purpose of different sections a little clearer.
12. Added {RedDate} template tag, which uses the older (6-digit) method of calculating the numeric date value. New templates now use this method for the output path by default.
13. Added a button to generate some example templates.

which version?

which version?

Hi Surreal...

I'm mainly working on Windows, but have Mac accessability...
how different is the Mac version to Windows version, since I noticed over a couple of versions you've mentioned that Windows hasn't been upgraded...

Just wondering which one to try to start to work with..
cheers Chris
 
On a Mac sudo (list) password and su are different (though one can make them the same). Typically su (the root) password will not let you do anything until the root user (superuser, different than admin user) is activated. However if su is done after a successful sudo, probably the system will not ask for the root password as one is already root user for his/her "15 minutes of fames!", however, root user activation may be needed.

To activate root user please use /Applications/Utilities/Netinfo Manager


Thanks Joofa for the info. But as a real novice I can not seem to do much with it. I tried looking for the Netinfo Manager, I do not seem to have it installed. Should I install it? Is there any other way to run those commands?

Thanks.
Ido.

The Windows version has very limited development. I believe it is around 3 builds behind the Mac version. The main reason is that I spend most of my time on an Apple box, so there's very little incentive for me to play around with the Windows version, and the Red community appears to be very much Mac-based.

A lot of the most recent features are dependent upon Applescript to work (for example the ability to run terminal commands from the UI), with which there is no real Windows alternative.

The next release, when I get some time to work on it, will have a bunch more new stuff, and after that's done I might go and work on the Windows version to bring it up to date.

Redemption Documentation/Wiki

I've created a wiki with documentation about Redemption (and some info about using redline too).
It's at:
http://sites.google.com/a/surrealroad.com/redemption/

It's got some detailed info about the requirements for some of the stuff people have been having problems with, such as the auto-add images/proxies, and the process of generating a CSV file.

Thanks.
 
that CSV data looks correct. If Redemption isn't creating records, it usually indicates that the Redemption data file is read only.

Please verify that:
  • You have moved the Redemption folder to your hard disk (i.e. Redemption will be in read-only mode if you try running it directly from the .dmg)
  • The userdata.rdm file is not read-only

If all this is the case, please give me a step-by-step of what happens when you hit the import button.
 
Hi,

I make the csv file import it into Redemption and it work correctly until I have choose to import the image at this point nothing is coming, I see that the script is lauching but there is a message window where is writed that it don't find the file.

The path of my files begin by ././A005_C002_......_001.R3D and I have not moved any file.

Thank for your attention man,
 
Hi,

The path of my files begin by ././A005_C002_......_001.R3D and I have not moved any file.

The problem is that your file path needs to begin at the root, i.e. ././Volumes/disk/etc/A005_C002_......_001.R3D

So you have two options now:
1. Purge the database and recreate the csv file, this time starting from / (type cd / into terminal before running the find command)
2. Manually edit each file path to include the full path...
 
ok I understand what you mean but if I launch de process with cd/ it scan all my computer and take time, my R3D files are in a specific folder or an external drive. Can I avoid the fact that Redline scan all my computer and put the folder or drive without having the path incomplete?

Thanks man,
 
Try this:
highlight the filename field
in the menu, go to edit>find/replace>find/replace
set find what to: ././
set replace with to: ././Volumes/disk/etc/
set direction to all
check: search within current field
hit replace all
