Made with Silverstack Lab.

The clip library

Manage media, metadata and transcodes in one library.

At the heart of Silverstack Lab is the clip library, which serves as your central hub for managing and preparing media, metadata, and transcodes. Easily navigate, customize, and build a fully searchable and shareable directory - ready for use on set, near set, or in post. It’s also your gateway to grading, QC, transcoding, and more.

Library outline

The clip library is organized into projects, folders, and bins. Customize the layout or use smart folders for easier navigation. Select assets to view details or take action, like grading your dailies.

Toolbar

Quickly access key features for offloading, import and export, transcoding, or the grading and audio panels. Tailor the toolbar to show only the tools you need.

Clip list

Switch between different clip views like summary, table, and collection views. Use this central panel to play back footage, check synced audio, and apply looks or grades.

Metadata panel

Access over 100 metadata fields per clip, including both automatically extracted and manually added or imported data - for original camera files as well as transcodes.

Library sync

Sync multiple Silverstack libraries via Pomfort’s cloud service ShotHub to keep all data centralized. Or connect with Livegrade to seamlessly import looks and apply them to your dailies.

Library View / Jobs View

Seamlessly switch between Silverstack XT’s two core interfaces: Library View to manage your assets, and Jobs View to monitor and optimize workflow processing.

Key features

Dailies done smarter.

Silverstack Lab combines robust data management with powerful tools to create production-aligned dailies quickly and efficiently.

Accurate audio-video sync is essential for dailies that reflect the intended performance. Silverstack Lab takes care of the heavy lifting with timecode-based syncing, eliminating tedious and error-prone manual alignment. If needed, you can still fine-tune clip-by-clip audio/video synchronization with sub-frame accuracy.
Silverstack Lab ensures your dailies reflect the approved on-set creative intent by automatically matching imported looks via timecode. Built-in grading tools, including CDL controls and grading nodes, allow for precise adjustments, while features like the split-screen view make it easy to match shots across scenes. Seamless integrations with Pomfort’s on-set color grading application Livegrade and cloud service ShotHub let you sync and apply looks instantly, streamlining the process even more.
Transcodes are essential across production: editors rely on proxy versions of original camera and sound media, while other crew members or departments need to review daily footage through online platforms and collaboration tools. These deliverables often differ in format and technical requirements. Silverstack Lab provides ultra-fast transcoding with advanced features like professional codec and container configuration, frame lines, dynamic metadata burn-ins, watermarks, and fully customizable output settings. Thus, you get consistent, production-ready dailies tailored to every need.
Silverstack Lab simplifies handoffs to post and other teams with built-in support for industry-standard editing, grading, and dailies platforms. Export camera files, transcodes, metadata, and looks in ready-to-use formats for Avid Media Composer, Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, and DaVinci Resolve. Upload transcodes directly to dailies and review platforms like Webgate.io, Frame.io, and Ci Media Cloud and export metadata to COPRA. For transparent documentation, generate customizable reports that meet any production requirement.

You can customize folder structures and naming to fit your workflow and post requirements, while advanced volume management optimizes performance across all storage types.
Keep track of your footage and all created backups across multiple RAIDs and shuttle drives in one comprehensive project library. Automatically extract embedded metadata, add custom notes, and import details from third-party applications to capture the full context of every clip. Stay organized with intuitive tools for sorting, rating, labeling, and searching your assets. When it's time to move into post, export metadata in formats optimized for all major editing and grading platforms, such as CSV, ALE, or XML.
Spot image errors directly on set to prevent costly surprises during post-production. You can playback clips natively in various resolutions, including high-res playback on SDI monitors, and use standard JKL controls to scrub through clips. To assess technical quality, Silverstack XT provides side-by-side comparisons, scopes, and exposure assist with different systems, including EL Zone. Easily check for issues such as clipping, focus, and exposure at every frame and annotate your QC findings directly within the library. Silverstack XT’s color panel also lets you make basic color and exposure adjustments if needed for quick on-set reviews.
Document and share your work with professionally designed report templates, tailored to different levels of detail and technical depth. Whether you're informing producers, supervisors, fellow production teams, or post-departments, generate well-structured PDF reports that match their needs. Seamlessly hand over critical information to downstream departments like post-production or VFX using industry-standard technical formats such as CSV, ALE, or XML. With customizable templates and flexible output options, Silverstack XT ensures every recipient gets exactly the information they need.
