### 1/5 — Used it for 5 minutes and spotted a mistake

*2025-01-11*

Started using this, was wondering how much space would 10 hours of various DnxHD codecs would take on my drives. This app made no difference between DnxHD 220 and DnxHD 220x. As if 10 bits wouldn’t take up much more space than 8 bits. 
Don’t waste your money here guys. 

Also only had ArriRAW 2k and 3k option. 

Used this for five minutes and it’s already unreliable so won’t be using this in the future. 
Hopefully they accept the refund because that’s not just bad design it’s just completely wrong.

### 4/5 — Nice app...

*2019-07-25, version 1.2*

Well made and useful...
But I never can be sure the readings are accurate because I have difficulties finding my recording device's codecs.
There should be some kind of tutorial...

### 3/5 — No 1080p raw setting

*2018-07-11*

To be fair to this developer, I have not found any data calculator that has a 1080p raw preset. It’d be nice if this developer could add that in an update.

### 4/5 — Need more 4K formats Dnx for example

*2017-07-13*

Just that

### 5/5 — A Great Tool

*2015-02-21, version 1.2*

Everything is fixed and looks great now! Very useful, especially if you are planning to shoot 4k in ProRes codecs or RAW

### 5/5 — What about UHD?

*2014-07-17*

I love this app but you need to add UHD 4k as an option. I use it all the time but the math is off when you select 4k which is slightly bigger than UHD.

### 5/5 — Its great now

*2014-03-06, version 1.1.2*

Gave it a bad review first time,its now been updated to correct a mistake with the BMCC Raw 2.5k. Very useful now!!!

### 5/5 — Great

*2013-04-08, version 1.0.7*

As a DIT in the media industry you have made my life easier, thank you.

### 3/5 — No 50fps option on DVCProHD

*2012-06-21*

App works as expected.
DVCProHD 720 doesn't have an option for 50fps.  Which is the codec my production use everyday. Hopefully this will be included in the next update (please developers!).
If this frame rate was included I'd give it five stars.

### 5/5 — Exactly Right

*2012-06-15*

This app has saved me so much time already. No-frills - exactly what you need - a perfect tool.
