Redline

[Ross Isaacs]

Do we still need REDline to transcode R3D files? If so where does it live as when I use the REDline install function in RCX it asks for a password but I get an error when I enter the password?

Hi Ross,

REDline has never been necessary to transcode from within RCX. The install REDline dialog shows the install destination. All we do here is place a symlink to the binary inside the app bundle. By default the location is /usr/sbin and that requires an administrator password.

That is the problem it won't let me enter a password...perhaps because I changed to no password? I keep getting an error box. If I don't need REDline should I worry?

You might need to add a password as somethings won't authenticate on osx without a passwd.

+1 on this issue. I don't have an admin password on my macbook and redline won't install without one. It would be great to just have redline install along with RCX, or at least have the choice in the installer.
