Is anyone else having an issue of R3D Data Manager not skipping RDC folders when Skip RDC folder when RDC folder already exists is selected?

By not skipping the RDC folder it makes it very slow as your Red drive fills towards the end of a days shoot.

I am running version 6.3 on a Mac book pro.

Thank you in advance for any help solving this for me.

Cheers, Tim.

Thank you for your help !

Cheers, Tim

Did you send me the log file of the copy operation? It can be found in ~/library/application support/R3D Data Manager/. Theres a file for each copy run.

I am also having the same issue with R3D manager ignoring the skip rcd folder which slows down the copy process significantly. Went back to 6.1 and all is fine again.

Went back to 6.1 and all is fine again.

Thanks for letting me know I have another shoot in the morning and need to sort this out.

How do you go back to version 6.1.?

 

[Conrad Hunziker]

Im not going to post the links here, but if you look at the link in your email, it should be evident how do download a prior version. Id recommend trying 6.2.1 first.

Thank you for the very very quick replies. I have downloaded earlier versions and will try out in the morning.

Please let me know if you would like any other log files or other info.

Cheers, Tim.

Not any kind of priority, but it hurts my inner script editor - the mispelling of "finished" in the "View all results" report that has been there as long as I can remember using R3D Data Manager! :smile:

I to ran into 6.3 not skipping properly. Went straight back to 6.2.1 and all is good.

I'm trying version 6.3 on a Macbook Pro running OS 10.6.7. I copied a test roll from a CF card fine, then when re-mounting the same CF card it re-transferred the footage to the same folder and overwrote the previous files. This happened when either 'Create New Folder' or 'Ask' is selected from the 'If the RDC folder exists' option. Isn't it supposed to create a new folder for safety?

 

[Conrad Hunziker]

This is fixed in 6.4

Hi Conrad,

Can you give me an idea of when you will release V6.4?

Thank you.

Cheers, Tim

Tim-

The verification phase is taking a bit longer than expected. Should be done any day now.

Thanks
