CleverFiles is proud to introduce Disk Cartography to the Mac App Store

 

 

Disk Cartography can map almost any type of drive connected to a Mac – hard drives, memory cards, USB flash drives, and even network drives. Entire drives can be scanned, or users can choose to drill down to a specific folder or subfolder. This is useful to scan and clean out cloud-connected storage folders like Dropbox and Google Drive. Files and folders are color-coded so you can see at a glance which ones are taking up the most space.

Users can choose to sort the results by file/folder size, percentage of space used within a parent folder, or by number of files within a folder. Results can then be further filtered by file type, keyword, and file size. This means users can quickly and easily identify files that are taking up too much space. Once space hogs are identified, Disk Cartography makes it easy to delete the files and will immediately update the disk map in real time.

System Requirements:
* OS X 10.7 or later
* 64-bit processor
* 0.9 MB

Pricing and Availability

Disk Cartography 1.1 is on sale for $1.99 for a limited time in the Mac App Store, till May 7th, 2015. The app is the brainchild of CleverFiles, based in Atlanta, Georgia.

PHYX today announces PHYX Cleaner 2.1

phyx

The PHYX Cleaner’s suite of utility effects is perfect for anyone using DSLR footage or other sources and needs to remove, enhance, or repair footage. PHYX Cleaner is an excellent tool for industry specialists, or as an accessory for start-up businesses looking to create professional promotional materials. It is also great for classroom projects, home projects, or just about anything in between that requires an all-in-one package to fix a myriad of video artifacts, or to enhance quality.

PHYX’s website contains a list of major industry players that use their products, such as Walt Disney, CNBC, FOX, and many others, however, the functionality of PHYX Cleaner is transparent and user-friendly for beginners as well.

Presets for all plugins can be created and saved by the user and used cross-platform, regardless of which platform was used during saving. For example, a user can save a set of preferences while using Final Cut Pro and each preset will stay intact when launching and using a different platform, such as After Effects. To make things even easier, each plugin comes with a ‘help’ button with a user manual specific to each plugin.

Feature Highlights:
* Consists of 7 plugins
* GPU accelerated for optimized speed and precision
* Fast Approximate Anti-Aliasing
* Chroma Reconstructor
* Restore gradients where posterization occurs
* Converts interlaced fields into progressive frames and removes comb-like artifacts
* Fast noise reductions with variety of techniques
* Haze Removal
* Enhanced sharpening processor with Nasa-grade Low Pass Filter
* On sale at 50 percent off for a limited time

AntiAlias is an effect that removes ‘stair-step’ blocks that occur, also known as aliasing, from photographed or 3D rendered images. The first process of this plugin uses FXAA (Fast Approximate Anti-aliasing). Other processes include High Frequency Noise Removal, Soften Radius, and Soften Amount. To adjust these features, users simply move the ‘slider’ associated with each tool to create the preferred look.

Fast Noise Reduction can be dropped onto a selected clip to process noise reduction quickly. Within the parameters of this effect, there are four noise reduction tools to choose from, which include Spatial, Threshold, Despeckle, and Temporal. Spatial is recommended for high frequency, otherwise known as ‘fine’ noise. Threshold is used for light grain, while Despeckle is used for uneven grain, or removing noise from smooth gradients or solid colors. Temporal should be used for larger grain and noise patterns. Parameters include Smoothness, Radius, Amount, and Noise Reduction Amount.

Chroma Reconstructor re-builds color when it becomes blocky or pixilated. Chroma issues may be apparent when keying green or blue screen material. Chroma Reconstructor rebuilds a video signal’s chroma channels into 4:4:4. This plugin internally converts incoming images to the desired colorspace, applies sub-pixel reconstruction, then applies optional softening or sharpening to the luma channel. Sharpening can increase perceived sharpness while softening can tame harsh chroma artifacts. Parameters include Colorspace, Chroma Subsampling, Chroma Smoothing, Luma Sharpen Radius, and Luma Sharpen Amount.

Deband restores gradients where posterization occurs due to low-bit depth sampling. Best used with photos and 3D animations as it smooths out any ‘banding’ left behind. Smoothing and ‘variance’ are added to remove unwanted banding issues. Parameters include Variance Amount, Smoothing Radius, and Smoothing Amount.

Deinterlace helps remove the comb-like artifacts of interlaced footage. PHYX Cleaner uses multiple techniques for converting the raw fields into progressive frames. Removing ‘comb’ lines is achieved by one of three methods: Reconstructed Field, Blended Field, or Motion Compensated. Field Reconstruction generates missing field information, Blending Field combines two fields together to create a smooth look, and Motion Compensated combines the Field Reconstruction and the Blending Field methods to create an optimal effect. Parameters include Deinterlace Method, Reconstructed Field Smoothness, High Frequency Noise Reduction, View Motion, and Motion Sensitivity.

Haze Removal removes atmospheric haze by acting as a UV filter. It simulates a polarized lens through a color subtraction by ‘reflecting a portion of reflected light’, making images more vivid and true to natural color form. Parameters include Haze Filter Power, Haze Filter Amount, Polarizing Filter Color, and Polarizing Amount.

Sharpest uses a variety of techniques to achieve a sharp and precise image. Methods, such as a NASA-grade Low Pass Filter, UnSharp Mask, and Threshold are used. Parameters include Sharpen Method, Low Pass Filter Size, UnSharp Mask Radius, Threshold Radius, EdgeSharpen, View Edges, and Sharpen Amount.

“PHYX Cleaner is a complete toolbox for quick and complete video repair and enhancement” said Justin Bendo, President of PHYX. “Our mission is to create an all-in-one package that offers practical, easy, and high quality effects that just about anyone could use. PHYX products have been used by key industry innovators such as Apple, Sony Music Entertainment, and CNBC, not because of its overly-complex and layered attributes, but because of its ease-of-use, flexibility, high-quality, and speed!”

To celebrate their newest updates to PHYX Cleaner, the company has decided to offer new users with a 50 percent discount for a limited time.

System Requirements:
* OS X 10.8 or later
* FxFactory

Supported Platforms:
* Apple Final Cut Pro (7 and 10)
* Apple Motion (4 and 5)
* Adobe After Effects (CS 5, CS5.5, CS6, and CC)

RemObjects Software announced the immediate availability of Elements 8.1

RemObjects Software releases Elements 8.1,

For developers working with multiple platforms, this alleviates the need to learn and constantly switch between different languages and IDEs, allowing them to focus on and build upon one skill set, but without giving up the flexibility of fully native access of each platform. But even for single-platform developers, Elements is a compelling choice, with its powerful compiler and rich and productive development environment and toolchain.

Languages:
With Elements, developers can choose between (or combine) three separate programming languages: RemObjects’s own **Oxygene** language, **C#** and – new in version 8.1 – Apple’s **Swift** language. Each language is supported for all target platforms and has advanced IDE support for a first-class development experience.

 

favorite-symbols

 

Platforms:
Elements lets developers target three distinct platforms: **.NET** (including support for ASP.NET, Windows apps, Windows Phone, WinRT and cross-platform servers), **Java** (including, of course, Android) and **Cocoa** for native iOS and Mac development.

Elements supports each of these platforms directly and natively, without bloated abstraction layers that would hide the underlying frameworks. On each platform, developers have full and unfettered access to the native APIs and the wide range of open source and third party libraries available.

Development Environments:
Elements supports developers working on both Windows and Mac –

* On Windows, developers can use the **Visual Studio** IDE (included free of charge), which has been extended with deep integration for all three languages *and* a full development and debugging stack for both Java and Cocoa.

* On Mac, developers can leverage RemObjects’ own brand-new **Fire** development environment which has been developed from the ground up especially for the Mac and for the Elements languages – and is new in version 8.1.

Pricing and Availability
Elements 8.1 is available now, with a limited-time introductory price for new users of $799 (USD) per user for the full Elements package, and $7999 for a company-wide license. This includes support for all three languages and platforms, both development environments, and one year of free updates. A 30-day trial is available. Developers interested in using the Swift language only can use the Elements compiler free of charge. More information, downloads and purchasing options can be found at RemObjects Software online.
