Lesspain Software has announced the official release of its media management app Kyno, initially for Mac OS.

Kyno is a media management, screening, logging, organisation and transcoding toolset for anyone working with video content and still imagery. It works with a wide variety of industry-standard formats and integrates seamlessly with Premiere Pro and Final Cut Pro .

Kyno is designed with creativity in mind. Aimed at filmmakers, production professionals and video enthusiasts, it combines a number of common workflows in a simple interface that eases traditionally frustrating tasks.

Kyno highlights

Easy access to your media: Fast searching, filtering and media asset management gives instant access to videos directly from your hard-drive or SD card

State-of-the-art technology: Play and quality-check footage in a high-performance player with accurate speed controls, widescreen bars, high-quality playback and more

Find content fast: With ingest-free media browsing, media-aware filters, markers, subclips, tags, ratings and more, you get you what you need, fast

No-fuss conversion and export: Support for a wide variety of industry-standard target formats, with a strong focus on productivity-enhancing batch operations

Up-to-date integrations: Easily fit Kyno into any video workflow: export to Excel or send files with metadata to Final Cut Pro X, Final Cut Pro or Premiere Pro

Matthew Allard, ACS accredited freelance DP and filmmaker comments: Kyno is easy to use, feature rich and makes logging, rating and transcoding your vision a more enjoyable task. Im often in situations where my colleagues can t view and log footage from a particular camera as they don t have an NLE on their computer. Kyno allows them to do this easily and efficiently. Its the first programme of its type that works with just about any camera, codec or format.

Craig Hansen, senior cameraman, 101 East, Al Jazeera International comments: Kyno is a one-stop shop for viewing and logging daily rushes. The ability to check content on my hard drives from multiple camera formats on one programme is a huge time saver! With Kyno, you dont have to have your desktop full of players for each of your cameras, nor do you need an expensive NLE system. Kyno is ultra-efficient and it works with every codec Ive thrown its way. You cant ask for more than that.

Robert Kr ger, managing partner at Lesspain Software comments: We re thrilled to launch Kyno to the public. We worked hard to make Kyno s workflows revolutionary for anyone that works with video and media content and is looking for a simpler way. We see Kyno as a game-changer for the industry. It s all about fast, easy workflows this first version is just the beginning of an exciting future for video professionals and enthusiasts alike.

A Windows version of the software is in development and is planned for release later in 2016.

Lesspain Software is offering a free 14-day trial of Kyno at the Kyno website. A permanent license is available to purchase now at the retail price of US$159, including one year of product updates.
