ResEditor is the essential bandwidth calculator and resolution analyzer for video engineers, broadcast professionals, and system integrators. Instantly calculate whether your resolution fits a given interface, plan IP video infrastructure, and reference specifications for every major professional video standard -- all in one app. LINK CALCULATOR Analyze resolution compatibility across display and broadcast interfaces: - HDMI 1.4, 2.0, and 2.1 - DisplayPort 1.2 (HBR2), 1.4 (HBR3), and 2.1 (UHBR13.5) - SD-SDI through 12G-SDI Configure resolution, refresh rate (24-480Hz), bit depth (8/10/12-bit), chroma subsampling (4:4:4, 4:2:2, 4:2:0), and HDR mode (SDR, HDR10, Dolby Vision). See instantly whether your signal fits with color-coded bandwidth indicators and Single/Dual/Quad Link classification. Scale resolutions from 30% to 190% and browse a grid of scalable options filtered by divisibility (x8, x16) for GPU and encoder compatibility. IP CALCULATOR Plan professional media-over-IP infrastructure with full bandwidth breakdowns: - ST 2110-20 (uncompressed video) - ST 2110-22 (constant bit-rate compressed video, 2:1-20:1) - ST 2110-30 (PCM audio via AES67) - ST 2110-31 (AES3 transparent transport) - ST 2110-40 (ancillary data) - IPMX with JPEG XS (TR-08 / TR-10) - NDI Full, NDI|HX, NDI|HX2, NDI|HX3 - SRT (with adjustable recovery bandwidth and AES encryption) - RIST (with FEC options) Configure multi-stream video, audio, and ancillary data. Select network interfaces (1/10/25/100 GbE) with accurate protocol overhead accounting. Enable ST 2022-7 redundancy for dual-path bandwidth planning. SPECIFICATIONS REFERENCE Quick-reference cards for every supported standard: - HDMI pinouts, max resolutions, and feature support by version - DisplayPort HBR/UHBR variants, MST, DSC, and USB-C Alt Mode - SDI data rates, cable lengths, and embedded audio capabilities - Complete ST 2110 suite overview with bandwidth examples - NDI codec comparison (Full vs. HX variants) with bandwidth tables FEATURES - Real-time bandwidth calculations with green/red fit indicators - Detailed video timing breakdowns (pixel clock, blanking, porches) - Physical display size calculator (PPI-based) - PDF export with selectable sections for system documentation - Dark theme optimized for control rooms and on-set use - Works completely offline -- no internet required - No tracking, no analytics, no data collection Whether you are verifying a 4K HDR signal over HDMI 2.1, planning a 25 GbE ST 2110 facility, optimizing NDI streams for your network, or documenting system specifications, ResEditor gives you the answer in seconds. Designed by CVH Visuals for professionals who need answers fast.

Docksy turns a spare iPhone or iPad into a control deck for your Mac. Think of a grid of glossy glass keys, each one a button you set up to do something useful the moment you tap it. Want to take a screenshot, paste plain text, mute a call, or jump to your next slide? Put it on a key. Tap it. Docksy tells your Mac to do it. Every press answers back with a little haptic tap, and the volume slider ratchets as it rises, so it feels real under your thumb. Docksy is free and open source. There are no accounts, no sign-ins, no ads, and no tracking. Nothing you do leaves your own devices. HOW IT WORKS Docksy needs the free companion Mac app. Your iPhone or iPad and your Mac find each other over your local Wi-Fi, with no setup beyond approving the Local Network prompt. The phone sends your taps to the Mac, and the Mac runs them. Both devices must be on the same Wi-Fi network. WHAT YOU CAN PUT ON A KEY - Keyboard shortcuts, like Copy, Paste, or any combo you choose - Open an app, a website, a file, or a folder - Close, minimize, or quit a window - Play, pause, skip, or mute media - A volume slider with haptics - Countdown timers - Type a saved snippet of text - Folders and pages, so you can hold far more than one screen of keys MAKE IT YOURS Resize keys, set your own images, and group actions into folders and pages. Build one layout for editing video, another for calls, another for music. Switch between them in a tap. WHAT YOU NEED - The free Docksy app for Mac, running on the Mac you want to control - Both devices on the same local Wi-Fi network - Permission to use the Local Network, so the two apps can find each other PRIVACY Docksy collects no data. It has no servers and no cloud. Your keys, your actions, and your taps stay on your own devices and travel only across your own local network. The project is open source, so anyone can read exactly what it does. Docksy is built for anyone who wants quick, physical control of their Mac, whether you stream, edit, present, take a lot of calls, or just like a tidy set of buttons within reach.
