FilmCan copies your media to multiple drives in a single pass, hash-verifies every byte, and writes the manifests — so you know the backup is good before you wipe the card.
Drag your card or folder into Copy From.
Drop one or more drives into Save To. More drives = redundancy.
One pass copies to every destination at once.
FilmCan automatically hash-checks every byte and writes the manifest.
N sources → M drives, read once, written everywhere in a single pass.
Fast mode or Paranoid mode (full re-read). ASC MHL plus chain manifests.
Clean stop, no partial files. Re-run skips what's already safe.
Camera/Sound routing, roll folders, report scaffolds.
Disk-space and write tests on every destination before a single file is touched.
Custom folder templates + camera/sound auto-detection. Netflix Ingest is one ready-made preset.
ntfy and webhook alerts when a backup finishes or fails — no babysitting.
Every run logged with per-destination result, speed, and duration.
Custom day boundary for shoots that run past midnight.
Free and open source. Universal build for Apple Silicon & Intel.
Yes. GPL-3.0 licensed and fully open source.
Any camera that mounts as storage — RED, ARRI, Sony, Canon, Panasonic, Blackmagic, GoPro, and more.
No file uploads. Transfers stay local; optional notifications send status metadata only.
Yes. Stop is clean with no partial files, and re-running skips files already backed up to every destination.
Fast mode checks the hash computed during copy; Paranoid mode re-reads every file from disk. FilmCan uses xxHash128.
