macOS Integrations

Built into your Mac's workflow

Media Inspector doesn't stop at its own window. It plugs into the parts of macOS you already use — Finder, Shortcuts actions, batch automation — so inspecting media becomes part of your workflow instead of a detour.

Shortcuts

A folder in. Reports out.

Every core action — analyze, report, checksum, open — is a native Shortcuts action. Chain them into your own workflow, trigger it from a Finder right-click, and run a whole folder unattended. No app to open, no clicking through files one at a time.

  • Four native actions — Analyze Media File, Generate Report, Compute File Checksum and Open in Media Inspector
  • Right from the Finder — run any workflow as a Quick Action on the files you've selected
  • Batch by default — point it at a folder and get one branded report per file, hands-off
  • Feed JSON or CSV straight into your MAM, or drop PDFs into an ingest folder — the actions compose with everything else in Shortcuts

Select a folder of masters, run the shortcut, and a matching stack of archival PDFs appears — no app, no clicking through files.

Finder

Open with a double-click

Media Inspector registers with Finder for every format it understands, so an inspection is never more than a right-click away — or make it the default app for the formats you QC daily.

  • Double-click, drag onto the Dock icon, or pick it from Open With
  • Claims MKV, WebM, MXF and other formats macOS doesn't recognize
  • Open many files at once — each lands in the sidebar, ready to compare
