Testimonials

"This is an essential tool set for any Final Cut editor."
-- Jeff Handy,
Bisk Education
.

"Paid for itself almost straightaway. Achieved Final Cut bliss in no time and without having to re-install everything"

"Crash Analyzer is one of my favorite parts because as a normal user you never know what the crash logs mean. With the Maintenance Pack I immediately get a solution giving me steps I can take to resolve the problem."
-- Hanspeter Aliesch,
MUVI AG
.

"I downloaded your product because a RAID array failure left many Final Cut Files not open-able. Your utility fixed them and I was able to open them. Really saved me!"
--- Jay Cassmiri

"Thank you so much for this software. I have been having Compressor 'submit' problems and done everything I knew to do including reinstalling the whole FCP Suite. Nothing helped until I used your program."
--- Judy
FCS Maintenance Pack is a utility pack designed to keep your Final Cut Studio or Final Cut Express machine running at optimal performance and help resolve problems when they arise.

The suite contains tools to repair corrupt QuickTime movies, locate corrupt clips within Final Cut Pro projects, diagnose crash logs, manage plugins, repair Final Cut Pro projects, manage autosaves, salvage movie data from corrupt files, and much more.

Show-stopping problems always seem to occur on a deadline - FCS Maintenance Pack is designed to rapidly diagnose and fix common issues, ensuring users get back on track as quickly as possible. With the Task Scheduler utility, maintenance tasks can even be scheduled to run in the background for convenience.

FCS Maintenance Pack includes:

Autosave Cleaner
Expanding on the basic autosave management in Final Cut Pro, Autosave Cleaner offers more flexibility and can remove autosaves based on additional criteria including age and file size.

It can also be set to automatically remove autosaves from the Trash so that you don't have to keep emptying it when working on a long project.


Compressor Repair
Repairs the fragile links between Compressor and Qmaster.

Corrupt Clip Finder
When you have corrupt media on your timeline, Final Cut Pro will simply crash and you will not have any idea which clip is causing the issue. You face the long and arduous process of reconnecting each clip one-by-one in order to find the problematic one. Corrupt Clip Finder finds the corrupt clip for you in seconds.

Crash Analyzer
Analyzes your Final Cut Studio crash logs, attempts to diagnose the cause of the crash and suggests ways to solve the problem.

FCS Housekeeper
Trashes various caches and temporary files to keep Final Cut Studio in peak operating condition. FCS Housekeeper is even more useful when used in conjunction with Task Scheduler to run these tasks automatically.

FCS Remover
Removes Final Cut Studio, Express and Server. Can remove the entire suite or individual applications.

File Salvage
Extracts video and audio data from corrupt movie clips and places it into a new file.

Path Manager
Manages the locations of user and content directories on your system. It can inform you if the extra content that ships with Final Cut Studio is missing or invalid and allow you to easily move and synchronize content.

Plugin Manager
Plugin Manager allows you to quickly and easily organize your Final Cut Pro plugins. You can group them together, install new plugins and selectively enable and disable them - all without having to worry about where the plugins are physically located on disk.

Project Repair
Attempts to repair non-launching projects so that they are recognized by Final Cut Pro again. Can fix the infamous "Project is unreadable or too new for this version of Final Cut Pro" error.

Preference Manager
Manages Final Cut Studio preference files. Allows you to trash, backup, lock and restore preferences. Can also be configured to restore a particular set of preferences before a certain project is launched for per-project preferences.

QT Repair
Verifies, repairs and rebuilds the structure of QuickTime movies. Also repairs invalid CLUT IDs and optionally restores trimmed or edited media. For more heavily damaged files, it can combine the movie data of the damaged file with the QuickTime structure of a working file.

System Toolkit
A wealth of options to tweak and tune up your system, including:
  • Extra launch and display options for Final Cut Studio applications
  • Manage Final Cut Studio registration
  • Scan, repair, refresh files and remove temp files from disks
  • Manage QuickTime components
  • Streamline your applications by removing unused languages and architectures
  • Access hidden settings in OS X

XML Repair
Repairs invalid Final Cut Pro XML files and can convert XML files to different XMEML versions for compatibility with earlier versions of Final Cut Pro.
