MediaVerify — how to open it the first time
===========================================

MediaVerify is free, but it isn't signed with a paid Apple certificate, so macOS
will warn you once. It's safe; you just have to tell macOS to allow it. You only
do this ONCE — after that it opens like any normal app.

Requirements: an Apple-Silicon Mac (M1/M2/M3/M4), macOS 14 (Sonoma) or newer.

1. Drag "MediaVerify" into your Applications folder (or anywhere you like).

2. Double-click it. macOS will say it "can't be opened because Apple cannot
   check it for malicious software." Click Cancel/OK on that.

3. Open  System Settings ▸ Privacy & Security. Scroll down — you'll see a line
   like  "MediaVerify was blocked to protect your Mac."  Click  "Open Anyway".
   Enter your password / Touch ID.

4. Double-click MediaVerify again → click "Open" on the final prompt. Done —
   it'll open normally from now on.

If step 3 doesn't show the "Open Anyway" button, open Terminal and paste this
(adjust the path if you put the app somewhere other than Applications), then
try step 2 again:

   xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/MediaVerify.app

What to try in the app:
- Scan tab: pick an SD card, check it against a drive — see what's still only on the card.
- Copy tab: copy a card to a drive; every file is verified byte-for-byte.
- Production Log tab: export the transfer log (PDF or ASC-MHL).
- Sync tab: set a drive to auto-copy when inserted.

Thanks for testing!
