CRM Quick Look
Quick Look for .CRM footage
Only for Mac
$8.99
Mac
Press Space on any Cinema RAW Light clip and watch it play — straight from
the .CRM file. No conversion, no proxies, no waiting.
Your camera writes .CRM files. Finder shows you a blank icon. CRM Quick Look
fixes that.
Select any Canon Cinema RAW Light (.CRM) movie in Finder and press Space: the
clip's first frame appears instantly, then the footage plays as a loop —
decoded live from the original raw file. No transcoding, no proxy renders, no
copying into an NLE just to see what you shot.
WHAT YOU GET
• Instant previews — the first frame appears the moment you press Space,
and playback starts while the rest of the clip decodes in the background.
• True RAW playback — frames are developed straight from the camera
original, so what you see is your footage, not a stand-in.
• The facts at a glance — camera model, resolution, frame rate, frame count
and clip length in the bar of every preview.
• Finder thumbnails — .CRM files get real thumbnails from the first frame
of the clip, so you can spot the right take before you even press Space.
• Built for speed — multi-core CRX decoding handles 8K originals smoothly,
without ever loading the multi-gigabyte file into memory.
MADE FOR THE WAY YOU CULL
Reviewing a card full of takes? Arrow through your clips with Quick Look open
and see each one play. Find the keeper, bin the rest, and get on with the
edit.
SETUP
Launch the app once, and macOS registers the preview and thumbnail
extensions. If previews don't appear, enable "CRM Preview" under System
Settings → General → Login Items & Extensions → Quick Look.
