DigiSlate

it's a good app but it needs a couple of fixes like adding time come for the audio like the tc toolbox app and fixing the timecode for fps. if you fix it, it would be perfect.

you can not use the timecode with variable frames. 25, 50, 30, 60. Change please

You can do different sounds of the digislate in settings in this app

This app is everything i needed and more but syncing audio is hard with the clap vanishing the second it claps. If it remained on screen for a second after the clap it would make it a thousand times easier for audio syncing. That is really my only pet peeve with it and I use it daily on the film sets that I am apart of. I have recommended it to a few of my friends and even the directors have said it has sped up production with us no longer having to find an EXPO marker.

It’s definitely worth it for video productions and especially indie work

If you make more than 1 project with the same name, even if you edit the second one, after visiting the main screen it reverts back to the original you duplicated. So you can’t save multiple slates with different scene names but with the same project name. Edit: actually the system is all kinds of messed up, you can’t save multiple slates. They all default to the first one. Deleting them causes issues too. Also if you click the + to go to the project selection, you can only click the create new project button before touching anything, if you scroll your projects, the create new button greys out and you can’t click it, so you have to go into a project and leave again and not touch anything.

In the middle section I enter 200914_0004 which is a filename I need to display, but the app inserts a space between the 9 and 1. Is that a bug? I want exactly what I type to be displayed. Fix that and I would rate this useful app 5 stars.

Good app except the visual clapper disappears too quickly. This is suppose to make synching audio and video easier but that really doesn’t help much when you’re spending precious minutes trying to synch and still end up being off. It’s just a second too short. I would definitely purchase the add free version if they could fix that little issue. I would hate to give this such a low rating for a small but vital problem.

I started using DigiSlate to help determine audio offsets when doing live streams. Quite helpful with that and I’ve subsequently started using it when actually filming live streams. By then I know what my offsets need to be but using the slate let’s me confirm that my camera and mixer settings are still in place. Also useful to have the text (on the slate) put into my raw video file. I also purchased the $2.99 remove-ads in-app purchase. The cost is trivial and programmers should get something for their work.

Once the ads start popping up, I was unable to get back to the app.
