The fully featured version is a powerful standalone unit that handles a secure data transfer, can be used to directly playback or export dailies, and provides a data management and metadata server. Codex Digital introduced a device named Vault-XL, which follows their concept of the digital lab on set, but with support for SXR/XR capture drives, SxS cards, and CFast 2.0 cards.There are different versions of Silverstack available at. The program keeps all material in a database, can edit and export the metadata, can also create clip reports as PDF files, and provides a simple interface for quality control. Pomfort Silverstack or Silverstack XT (from $59) is professional software for DITs, with all necessary functionalities regarding verified data copy and checksum generation.Please keep in mind that “Rsync” cannot generate a so-called checksum file, it only compares file sizes. On OSX and Linux systems it is installed per default and you can run it from terminal. If it is not already installed on your computer, you can find it at. It requires a computer expert to run a verified data transfer and even then, is rather cumbersome to use. The price for copy tools ranges from free to several thousand dollars, depending on the convenience and ease of use of the solution: It’s an XML-based file which always contains the following information: For example, there’s a checksum file called MHL (Media Hash List). There are many different types of checksums, all for the same purpose: safe and fast copying. Checksum files should be calculated and generated as sidecar files at the first copy process. There are different software and hardware solutions available that will copy a file to one or several destinations and perform a checksum calculation, comparing the material on the original media to the copies, to provide a minimum-effort safety check of data integrity. We strongly recommend using copy software and tools with checksum calculation and verification. Transferring recorded material from the original media should never be done using a simple file copy.
