    I inadvertently deleted a field of information from a pick list I made on an entire catalog. Is there a way to go back in time to look at a previously saved log and re-save it as new – like you can do with a project in Final Cut Pro?

    If you’re working standalone and save catalogs to a .cdv catalog file then CatDV will normally save the previould catalog as a .old file. If you’re using the CatDV Server however then it doesn’t keep old versions I’m afraid as this would quickly use up a lot of space. (Deleted clips are moved to the recycle bin however, and deleted after two weeks.)

    Not that it helps you if you don’t have one, but here’s a post about setting up a backup job.

    If you guys out there aren’t getting at least a nightly, please set it up now.

    This database backup post should be a sticky!
