Boring Little Labeler checks camera-card copies and indexes the footage
A Mac app, listed at $100 once, that copies camera cards, verifies files, labels clips, and lets users search their footage.
- For
- Shooters and editors managing camera-card footage
- Worth noticing
- It says a card is safe to reformat only after every file matches its xxHash64 check and an MHL record is written.
Field notes
The described ingest workflow copies clips to a drive, checks each with xxHash64, and writes an MHL record; Sony, RED, and Canon sidecar files are said to travel with their clips. A sample wedding shoot shows labels feeding renamed filenames while retaining the original name. Search can be filtered by people, places, cameras, and words, with grid, list, map, or timeline views. The product is described as Mac-only, and labeling depends on a separately subscribed command-line AI tool.
