Details and download link
Nexis File and Folder Counter
This app counts the number of files in a folder or the number of folders within a folder. It’s designed to quickly scan local drives, Nexis Workspaces, or SMB shares, and is extremely easy to use.
- Browse to a Nexis Workspace, local drive letter, or SMB share.
- Click Scan for Workspaces, Shares, or Folders.
- Set the maximum file and folder count you want to check. The default is 5,000 files and 500 folders (recommended: 5,000 files and about 100 folders).
- Press Run File and Folder Count.
The app will scan all \Avid MediaFiles\ folders (if selected) and generate a report. If any folder exceeds the specified file or folder count, those entries will be listed in the report.
Clean Aperture Fixer
Clean Aperture Metadata Fixer
This app updates the Clean Aperture (CLAP) metadata of MOV files to match the video resolution. This removes unwanted scaling applied to linked MOV files.
How to use:
- Drag the
.movfiles into the drop area in the app’s UI. You can drag files from multiple locations. - The app will scan the files and display details about their resolution and Clean Aperture metadata.
- Click Start Processing Files. The app will:
- Update the CLAP metadata to match the video resolution.
- Create copies of the videos in a CleanAperture folder. These processed files can then be linked in Media Composer.
- If you have already linked the original files, use Relink > Linked Media to point to the newly processed files, then refresh the sequence. The sequence will now display with the correct scaling
