FluxCapacitor reconciles timecode across multiple cameras — even when they were never jam-synced, or were shot at different frame rates. Point it at the sync point you know, and it works out where every other camera should be. No more squinting at a calculator or a spreadsheet trying to convert 23.976 against 29.97 drop-frame in your head. WHAT IT DOES - Reconcile timecode across any number of cameras at once - Handle mixed frame rates side by side — 23.976, 24, 25, 29.97 DF/NDF, 30, 50, 59.94, 60, 119.88, 120, and custom rates - Correct drop-frame and non-drop-frame counting automatically - Run every camera's timecode live together with J/K/L transport controls - Hold any one camera to re-sync it by hand without disturbing the rest - Keep a Time of Day reference clock right alongside your cameras - Two looks: a clean modern panel, or a retro time-circuits display BUILT FOR THE EDIT BAY Everything runs instantly and entirely on your device. There's no account, no sign-in, no network, and nothing is ever uploaded — it works the same on set with no signal as it does at your desk. FluxCapacitor is free. If it saves you some time, there's a "buy me a coffee" link inside, and more free tools at RampantOctopus Softworks.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: FluxCapacitor Timecode at none against Switcher's 4. FluxCapacitor Timecode also leads on update cadence (daily vs fortnightly) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Switcher's advantage is ratings volume (2.4K vs 1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
