Enhancements:

• This version modifies Growl and SMS/Email notifications to now include the source path in the copy status.
• Add the ability to setup Red Media Identifiers in the preferences and select from them in the Project Information update window.
• A new preference was added to remind the user to update Project Information when auto-start is enabled and a new Red Media is mounted.
• You can now attach the logs to your email notifications (Not recommended if using SMS, as the logs are verbose).
• Add a mini-result icon per destination, so the user can see which destinations erred easily.
• The icon updates with each source. The program now saves a master log in the user's library, and removes old logs after 30 days. Before each copy the sources are checked to ensure they exist before starting a copy.
• When auto-start is enabled and a new Red Media is mounted, the program will clear from the queue all sources that are completed and successful.
• It will then try to copy everything in the queue again, including previous sources that have not been removed and were not successful. Add the ability to change/update the Project Information area as the copy is in progress and it will save those to the ProjectInfomation.txt file.
• Fix the following bugs: recopying footage after an error and a bug in UI updating.
