QueueSee
MEDIA ANALYSIS TOOLKIT

Queue media. See what's in it.

A desktop player designed to inspect
every layer of a media file.

Step cleanly forward or back, isolate any channel,
and search every word, spoken or captioned.

FRAMES

Every frame, forward or back.

Step through video one frame at a time in either direction, even in delivery formats where standard players jump or stall. Shuttle forward or backward at up to 16× speed, or scrub the timeline to find your place.

CHANNELS

Every audio channel, isolated.

Monitor multi-channel audio track by track, and isolate any channel or stereo pair directly from the meter panel. Synchronised waveforms follow the playback so you can see changes in sound before you hear them.

WORDS

Every word, spoken or captioned.

Generate speaker-separated transcripts on your computer or in the cloud, or load existing subtitles directly from the file. Search any line of dialogue to jump straight to that moment, edit wording or timing, and export updated captions.

QueueSee with the Text panel open to a time-coded transcript labelled by speaker (Celia and Thom), highlighting the current line while the matching subtitle appears over the video.
PICTURE

Accurate colour and live scopes.

Monitor video with faithful colour representation and real-time signal scopes. Waveform, RGB parade, vectorscope and histogram tools trace the frame as it plays, highlighting clipping, colour casts and exposure issues.

QueueSee displaying a brightly lit laboratory scene alongside live RGB parade, luminance waveform and vectorscope panels.
STRUCTURE

Under the hood of every file.

Read deep track metadata for video, audio and subtitles without launching separate analysis tools. Switch the timeline to GOP view to see per-frame byte sizes, keyframe cadences, and compression structures straight from the file.

The Timeline in GOP view showing per-frame byte-size bars with I-frames highlighted in amber and a tooltip for the current frame, next to the Summary panel listing video, timing and audio track metadata.
LOGGING

Timeline markers and AI logging.

Drop and label colour-coded markers across the timeline without interrupting playback. Open the Assistant panel to let AI compare dialogue against captions, spot discrepancies, and draft markers ready to export to your editing software.

QueueSee with the Markers panel listing ten colour-coded point and range markers synchronised with the Timeline, alongside the Assistant panel comparing captions against the transcript.
ANALYSIS

Find faults without watching every second.

Automate routine checks across video, audio and captions, flagging black frames, silent tracks, and loudness spikes in seconds. Query the picture or dialogue with AI to locate specific scenes or objects, and turn any finding into a timeline marker.

The Analysis panel showing visual search results for explosion, close-up, city and screen with timecodes and confidence scores, above a Timeline displaying the matching marker spans.

QueueSee is made by Nathan Butler, drawing on twenty years in broadcast media and built with AI assistance. Its custom playback engine puts the inspection tools of a broadcast suite inside an everyday desktop player.
