AJA DataCalc

This was a handy app for checking run time but crashes now. Was inputting a 240 gig drive and then went to select other functions and it instantly crashes. Deleted and reinstalled but no happiness. Sad, was helpful while it worked.

App crashes as soon as I touch a setting. Please fix.

Keeps crashing every time I try to use any button

Works well.

I have been using this app probably since “version 1.0” (8 years ago?) It has been my go-to for calculating data rates from the days of SD DVD authoring, through HD 1080p field acquisition, and still going strong as I shoot 4K on my a7s II with VideoDevices outboard ProRes recorder. That’s gotta be some kind of record for longest-running app..? Plus it’s rock-solid and intuitively laid out. A very belated “thank you!!” to the good folks at AJA.

Updated to v3, and was disappointed to find what feels like a v1 beta. UI is stripped to nothing, number fields pull up the full keyboard, slow to launch, typos in the codec selections, and still no Canon XF-AVC listings. I use the app literally every day and it's supposed to be quick and easy--now I want to find another solution.

I really love this app. For anyone in the tech side of the content ecosystem, this is an ideal app in figuring out file size and runtime when dealing with various codecs, formats, file size selections, etc. If only it had a bitrate option to calculate also, that would make it a 5-star!!!

Works well but I think the Sony raw 16 bit estimates are off. Also would love to see a bits per second field since manufactures insist on using bits when describing codecs instead of bytes.

Great app, fast and easy to use.

With the availability of digital cinema cameras, a tool like this is indispensable. It works as advertised and presents a simple yet elegant graphic user interface. My only wish is that in they offer Compressed CinemaDNG (raw) for the Blackmagic Design Pocket Cinema Camera (BMPCC) as one of the selectable codecs. The BMPCC is rapidly becoming a go to camera for indie filmmakers and it has a vibrant community pushing quality work on it. Great app!
