  • Archiving software for projects?

    Posted by Jerry Sneede on February 26, 2015 at 3:25 pm

    I’ve asked before about the best way to archive AVID projects, but have not heard about any software that makes the process easier. Is there software the will gather all the relevant files so they can be put in one place? In an old archive in the Learn Avid Media Composer series software was mentioned, something free from Russia. I can’t find that software anywhere though.

    Thanks for the help.

    Russian program is MDV. It’s Windows only and I have no idea if it works anymore, but when I used it 4 years ago it was great.

    There was Media Copy by Automatic Duck, and was made available for free when they closed shop (the developer went to work for Adobe, I think).

    The last option is MediaMover for Avid, by Random Video. I used this about 8 years ago and it did exactly what you’re wanting, but I haven’t used it since. I have no idea if it works with the latest release of Avid, but you could probably email them to find out.
