I’ve just released Metasync 1.5 which allows metadata to be copied between media items in iView MediaPro catalogs. This version of MetaSync works with both iView MediaPro 2 and iView MediaPro 3. It also has a number of new features
- Updated user interface
- Support for new iView MediaPro 3 catalog fields
- Numerous bugfixes and extra sanity checking from the MetaSync 1.2 release
- There’s now a bit finer granularity on metadata annotations copied. I’ll be adding to this in the next release but this is an initial start.
- Logging support (both to a local application log and to a file)
I’ve also rewritten a lot of the core of the application to take advantage of Applescript Studio features that weren’t available when I first wrote the application. This has simplified the code a fair bit and allowed a few weird problems to be fixed as a result.
If you’re using iView MediaPro 3, you’ll need to upgrade to iView MediaPro 3.0.1 if you’re going to use MetaSync. Problems with the Applescript support in the original 3.0 release mean that it’s essentially unuseable for scripted applications (the litany of Applescript problems in 3.0 was actually fairly depressing).
The 3.0.1 release fixes many of the problems in 3.0 and seems to be far more stable.
Enjoy!
