locatorator

locatorator is an unfortunately-named script designed to find differences between two Avid marker lists. For example, if a marker with a VFX ID in the comment is placed on each VFX shot, this could be helpful to determine where cut changes have occurred and which VFX shots may be affected.

locatorator will display the changes on-screen, as well as output a new marker list that can be imported into the new sequence to call out changes.

Installation

The Easy Way

Download the latest release for your OS here: https://github.com/mjiggidy/locatorator/releases/latest

The Hard Cool Way

Gently clone this repo, then install:

pip3 install /path/to/locatorator

Note: Due to the dependencies, I'd create a virtual environment first. But you do you.

Usage

Once installed, two commands will be available to you:

  • locatorator - The GUI-based program
  • locatorator_cli - The command-line version of the program
