Checkpoint QC — film & TV spec check
QC your masters against broadcast specs in one pass.
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. 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 see the exact tech spec — grouped by domain, with severity, guidance and a source citation. Point at a real deliverable. The engine reads its metadata — codec, raster, frame rate, colour, audio, timecode — and scores it against the spec. An opt-in decode pass measures loudness (LUFS / LRA /…from checkpointqc.com

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…

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.
