What it does
Before you ship masters, make sure they pass the spec — not just that they look right. Checkpoint QC batch-checks a folder of clips against a delivery spec and reports pass/fail on resolution, frame rate, codec, chroma subsampling, bit depth, audio config, broadcast-safe levels, and file naming. Export a report to hand to the producer or client. Native macOS app. By a working DIT/colorist, who built it because delivery specs kept arriving as PDFs.
Checkpoint QC is a native Mac app for finishing artists, editors and post/QC teams: 223 curated delivery specs from 69 organisations across 24 countries — the world
A native Mac app for finishing & online artists, editors and QC teams: check a real file against what the platform actually requires — codec, raster, frame rate, colour, audio, loudness — and hand over a clean PDF QC report. Browse the spec, point it at a real master, and watch every parameter get scored against the document it came from. Your browser can’t play this video. Download the film (MP4, 40s) . 40 seconds · the real app, checked against Sky UHD SDR · sound on, but it’s quiet. The curated spec library is the product — browse it with no file attached, then point Checkpoint at a real deliverable and let it do the checking. Pick a platform and deliverable and…from checkpointqc.com

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
