Logster

Features
Read full description

With Logster you can simply create notes for your productions. These "logs" are related to a timecode. For creating logs you can use either buttons or a comment field for individual text notes. Logster further allows you to create logs having a start- and a end timecode to describe time ranges. +++ Internal system clock or external timecode sources Logster can be synced with the internal system clock or an external LTC timecode by simply connecting the timecode source with the audio jack of your iPad. +++ External keyboard support Logster allows a faster input of the commentfield with the support of CMD+RETURN Hotkey while working with an external keyboard. +++ Use of different frame rates All logs are stored as a timecode value, which can be visualized and used with different frame rates (24, 25 or 30 FPS). +++ Customize productions To perfectly fit your needs Logster is highly customizable and lets you create multiple setups for different productions. Each setup may have multiple pages with multiple buttons or input fields. Each keyword can be customized for color and type. +++ Export and email reports Logster works without a permanent internet connection. All logs are saved locally on your iPad and can be sent by email once a mail account is available. You can choose between a CSV file format which may be used in common spreadsheet software or a XML file format while exporting your logs. +++ Collaboration & Workflow integration Logster is designed for single use and also for collaboration. Some productions may require all logged information to be consistent and further be connected to a central database or a content management system. With Logster logs created on different iPads can easily be synced manually or automatically to a central place. If you're wondering how Logster can be integrated into your workflow, we will be pleased to further advise you.
