C1 5.1 Released Today

Filed under: News — Eric Zepeda @ 12:18 pm

Hey Gang, I’m on set, but just noticed that there is a new C1 5.1 out, and from the looks of the release notes, there could be some very good things in this one. Biggest thing I’m looking for is speed, which they say is addressed, as well as doing crop ratios direct in the crop tool instead of the process recipe. More to come but gotta go. -z

Stop bit-flux OR how harddrives can forget your stuff

Filed under: Technical — Rick Allen @ 9:19 am

Hey Techs,

I’ve never been a fan of hard drive a long term archiving media but the reality is everyone finds to too cheap and convenient to ignore. Well after reading this article I started thinking that the technique outlined in the relating article might be worth doing as a just in case. Well typing command lines 190 times didn’t appeal so here is an app that runs the command with less effort. This is completely harmless to the data on the drives but does take a long time to run and at the moment can only run on one drive at a time. If the interest is there I will work on it to run on multiple drives. Enjoy.
