About FootageCalculator

Footage Calculator scans a folder and totals the duration of every video and audio file inside it. It reads durations through AVFoundation, so anything macOS can play is counted — ProRes, H.264, HEVC, MXF and the usual audio formats; camera-raw files such as RED and BRAW are listed but not timed. Get a clean category-based breakdown of videos, audio, images, and other files with formatted duration totals. Drag a folder in and the totals come back without an import step or a project file.

Who it's for

Video editors and filmmakers who need to total footage duration quickly.

What it does

  • Drag and drop folder scanning
  • Times every format macOS can play, including ProRes and MXF
  • Category breakdown (video, audio, images, other)
  • Recursive or single-directory scanning
