Calcola Durata Filmati: per-folder report with a total duration of 2h49m, 10 videos in 4 folders

Everything you need, nothing more

One purpose, done well: knowing how long a collection of videos is without opening them one by one.

The grand total at a glance

A single number for the whole folder, for example 2h49m, with the count of videos and folders analyzed.

Expandable per-folder report

Each folder shows its duration; open it to see the individual files. Sorting is natural: 2 comes before 10.

Rename with the duration

Adds the duration to the folder name, for example “Photography Course (2h49m)”, so you see it in the Finder too.

M3U playlists

Creates a playlist for every folder with videos, with the duration in the file name, ready for VLC and other players.

Save, copy, reload

Save the report as a text file, copy it to the clipboard, or reload it next time without recalculating.

In your control

Choose which extensions to include, hide folders without videos, and work from the keyboard: ⌘O open, ⌘R calculate, ⌘S save.

No. It only reads the duration of the videos in the folder you choose and runs entirely on your Mac, with no connection. It writes files (reports, playlists) or renames the folder only when you ask it to.
