CoolCroco
Most viewers decode a photograph when you ask for it and discard it the moment
you move on, which is why the second trip through a shoot is no quicker than the
first.
CoolCroco inverts that. Background workers decode an entire folder once and keep
the results resident, within a budget scaled to the machine's own memory and given
back whenever something else on the system needs the room. The consequence is that
direction stops mattering: arrow backwards through four hundred frames and every
one of them is already waiting. Push past fit and the picture is re-decoded at
sensor resolution, so 100% means 100%.
Sorting costs a keystroke. A assigns a picture to Approved, X to Rejected, Ctrl+Z
reverses either. The originals are relocated rather than removed, and their bytes
are never touched. Star ratings land in XMP sidecars that Lightroom, Bridge and
Capture One already understand.
Raw decoding comes from LibRaw, covering every major manufacturer, alongside HEIC,
JPEG, PNG, TIFF and WebP. Duplicate grouping, burst detection and offline search by
picture content are included.
Free, for Windows, macOS and Linux. No accounts, telemetry or advertising.
