Hi,
I'm looking for an appliction that will enable me to browse my movie files and video clips in a nice way with covers - something a bit more inspirering than just a file list in Finder..
I could use iTunes - but I don't want to import all the files there. They live on a network disc and I want them to stay there. So iTunes is out.
I could use Frontrow and this kind of works - I can leave a .jpg with a movie cover in the movie folder (each movie has its own folder) - but Frontrow will then slideshow all files in that folder in the little preview next to the file - so if I have subtitle files as well in the same folder, I will get a slideshow of 3 files (movie, cover jpg and subtitle file) - doesn't work..
I love the way Delicious Library works - it beautiful and simple - but I'm not looking for a catalogue - just a browser, and the trial I have will only launch video from iTunes and wont link to other files. There are a few others like this one - but it's the same issue; program is not made for linking to files.
I also use Songbird as a iTunes alternative - if something like this exists for video it would be great. Looking at the files at whatever location I specify, adding a cover, and nothing more - ready to launch.
I can't be the only one searching for something like this?! But I might be the only one not finding it
Anybody with some good tips? Hope the explanation above makes more os less sense...
Thanks!
