Why do we give this out for free?


Through working with QuineCore for 7 years, serving productions and filmmakers, we see one big problem:

What is done on-set with your files, often doesn’t allow for efficient post-workflows.



Productions come with tons of disks, with securely copied files (fortunately), but when the next step comes: Arranging the files for editing, “someone” needs to do it all over again.



This is why we made QuineCopy. To get it right from the start.
We have spent the better part of 2023, planning, developing and trying to find the right amount of features in a “free for all” application that can filemanagement something your mom could do.

This is what we landed on:



1. Secure checksummed copying to 1 or many destinations in the field.

2. Automated proxy generation at ingest with LUTs 
Proxy generation is optional, but really cool when you need it.

3. Mirroring
A tool that streamlines the process of moving a lot of files from many disks to an edit storage or a sentral NAS in the posthouse.


4. Project templates (the first version has only one)
Every post-house have their own flavour of a catalogue-structure. While most budding filmmakers don't even know what a project structure is.

One thing we can imagine, is that post-houses can provide their desired templates to a production with QuineCopy. This will save hours of messy clean-ups, in the tedious and boring field of “getting to the edit”



QuineCopy is for the budding filmmaker or the big institutions.
And free whoever you are.

The core file-migration technology is quine’s robust CopySafe™ technology.

QuineCopy is now in public beta, so check for updates frequently 

We really hope this will be an industry-standard goto tool that can standardise the process of 



With the public beta you need Resolve studio to automate transcodes, but not to copy and mirror.



If you are at IBC, you cand find us in Hall 8 8.C04

And we love feedback.

Great job Gunleik! Thanks for your work!
I get this message. An unhandled exception occurred while processing the request.

Thanks patrick.

Can you press the "message" Icon, copy all text and send it to:

skarseth@quine.no

that would make it possioble to track down what happens.

Please also include your computer make (mac/win) and system version.

this is public beta because we have tested it on al equipment we have, but not yet on all you have :)

And because it depends on Resolve for transcodes.

Thanks a lot!

Quick heads-up

Still public-beta, but the current version should open normally first time in OSX, as long as you are Admin.
 
We have set up a discord for discussions.

It's brand new so there aren't much activity there yet, but if it works like we would like it to do, we probably will give it a bit of publicity in a weeks time.

if you would like to join in and help us test it, it is here:

I got a question if you could work with "multiple projects without creating new projects" with our free QuineCopy application

the answer is yes, and I made a quick video showing the procedure here:


 
Thanks for your video.

Is it possible to use 2 luts in the transcode section? The creative lut and the transform lut (from RWG to Rec709 and also my Look lut for example) ? Where do I import my own luts?
Thanks
Patrick
 
The LUT's are in Resolve - QuineCopy reads the local Resolve's LUT library, so if you want to add LUT's you add them to Resolve and then select them on the device (Hit the "Edit" button when you have dragged a new copy in)

The same LUT will then be applied to all clip for RED mags ATM. For Sony and ARRI, we can apply the "used when shooting" LUT, as long as these LUTs are available to Resolve.

THIS functionality will be extended.

The free Copy won't have super sofisticated LUT manageent, or CDL management.

What is planned before we go out of beta is:
  • Significantly simplified project setup
  • Template management (create and save your own template and use that for your productions)
  • XXHASH
  • Resume aborted copy-jobs
  • FFMPEG transcodes for non-RAW codecs. FFMPEG is a lot slower and worse than Resolve... but it is free. You won't be able to configure it much or use LUTs with FFMPEG, and the transcode options will be ProRes LT and h264 1080
  • Direct link to the discord support forum
  • Automatical check for updates at startup
  • Full functionality for non-admin users on OSX
We are chipping on that list + any reported bugs, and hope to be out of beta in 2 weeks time.

There are also a few eastereggs planned after we are out of beta, but this product will not be developed into a full fledged PAM (though Adobe called it a mini-PAM, which is technically true)
