redline .

[Gordon Breckenridge]

i have done numerous tests and I have discovered that running redline from the terminal with --useMeta actually produces something different from
opening the r3d in redalert, hitting the metadata button and then copying
the clipboard to the terminal...

the outputs should be identical should they not?

well they aren't.


have tested with newest redline/redalert on multiple 8 core xserves
and macpros running 10.5.6

RedAlert has settings in the UI that aren't in the metadata:
DRX
OLPF comp
Detail
NR

besides the other stuff like output format, scale, filter, etc.

--useMeta only sets the metadata options to be the same but can't assume how the other settings are set in RA. To match what's set in RA, use the copy to clipboard from RA, and remove all the metadata related items from the command and replace with usemeta. To see what's in metadata, you can output the metdata with --printMeta.
