- For
- Mac-based video-assist operators on camera shoots
- Worth noticing
- The SDI REC flag starts and stops takes frame-accurately; Rec Run timecode is offered as a fallback.
Field notes
The app follows the camera’s SDI REC signal, with Rec Run timecode listed as a fallback, and places takes in a clip list with camera, episode, scene, shot, and take fields filled in. Its comparison graphic is explicitly labeled an illustration: the hand-operated lane assumes about a one-second reaction delay. The page also describes per-camera monitor adjustments and synchronized playback for A and B camera takes.
