Recently I discovered the joys of being able to convert file codecs and sizes within catalyst (Thanks Simon!).
However there is one small glitch.
Because catalyst adds a note after the file extension some software stops recognising the files.
I'm sure what catalyst does is completely apple legal and its other poorly written code thats at fault.
the good news is some nice person wrote an automator function to replace extensions.
its not part of the stock automator functions so I thought id post it here.
I'll also post my file renumberer.
Both are drag and drop apps. ie you drag a folder onto the app and it does its thing.
