two interesting reviews about grinder and what it does and what (unfortunately) not.

and

i do not expect any magic at $49 but reel information and especially timecode “issues” are a drag.
The EOS Transfer plugin uses the date and time stamp to create “timecode” from the source media.
At the moment Grinder is still no option for many users unless the issues aren’t fixed.
