Compressor Repair 1.1.4

Compressor Repair 1.1.4 is a potential and easy to use tool which checks for problems that could be preventing Compressor and Qmaster from operating correctly. It checks for missing files, repairs incorrect permissions and attempts to manually start the qmasterd process.

Apple's Compressor relies heavily on the Qmaster service in order to work. Qmaster allows you to split rendering tasks across multiple machines in a render farm but it is still required even if you are only rendering on a single computer.

The link between the two is so important that if the Qmaster service fails to launch, Compressor will be unable to submit batches. Should this occur, Compressor Repair checks for problems that could be preventing Qmaster from operating correctly. It checks for missing files, incorrect permissions, an invalid hostname, and attempts to manually start the qmasterd process.

Major Features:

1. Checks for missing Qmaster files.
   
2. Checks for incorrect permissions and fixes them.
   
3. Resets Qmaster.
   
4. Manually launches qmasterd.
   
5. Checks for invalid hostnames.
   
6. Relaunches Qmaster menu bar icon.
   
7. Re-enables Qmaster startup item if previously disabled by user.
   
8. Checks for missing local hostname and computer name.
   
9. Trashes Compressor preferences (optional).
   

Enhancements: Bug fix: Fixed issue where qmasterd would not relaunch in certain instances.
