Description

AJA DataCalc computes storage requirements for professional video and audio media.

Designed for video professionals, this application works with all the most popular industry video formats and compression methods, including AJA Raw, Apple ProRes, DVCProHD, HDV, XDCAM, DV, CineForm, REDCODE, Avid DNxHD, Avid DNxHR, Apple Intermediate, 16 bit RGB and RGBA, uncompressed, and more. Video standards supported include NTSC, PAL, 1080i, 1080p, 720p, 2K, 4K and 8K.

AJA DataCalc allows you to change settings and calculate storage requirements in a single screen with simple controls and a clear concise display. Media durations can be entered in units of days, hours, seconds, or even as precise as frames using time code mode. Clicking on results will rotate you through alternative values including KB, MB, GB or TB for storage calculations or time results in a variety of formats when in TimeCalc mode.

Summary information obtained by DataCalc can even be optionally shared via email or other iOS and iPadOS share services, and a Favorites feature allows you to save common calculations for speedy reference.

Very useful app, needs more options

App works well but I agree with the other comments about including more codecs - particularly all the flavours of Avid DNxHD (eg 185X) or even better being to create user presets.

Good but could have more formats.

I'm trying to work out data rates for a QuickTime I'm making so I found this app after buying another. It is good, but as I found with the other app its more for avid hd codecs, and all I have for ad is dv25. So it's not completely useful for finding out h264 data file sizes. If AJA could just add a custom field to add your known data rate it would be perfect.

Does the job

My feedback for the devs: it has some flaws. The resolutions dropdown MUST describe actual dimensions and not just the name “4K FULL”. Hard to compare results from different sources when terminology changes and I still can’t work out what size “4K FULL” is supposed to be. Clarity is a key step on the way to accuracy.

An on/off switch for audio would be more helpful than manually selecting “0 ch” to show the result without audio included. Some defaults are strange: first time using the app and it chose 14.98 FPS and 8-bit 32 kHz audio as the default, there are more common default combinations which are applicable to more people (like 23.98 FPS and 24-bit 48 kHz audio).

Compliments: being able to enter a specific TC duration is a fantastic and simple idea, which other calculators haven’t considered. Good job.
