VideoPhile II makes it easy to organise your downloaded video files and is an ideal solution for cataloguing large collections across multiple storage devices. A library is automatically created complete with thumbnails after which you set about tagging your files. The tags themselves can be organised hierarchically and via links and synonyms. Best of all, you can use many of your favourite video applications without leaving the program!

VideoPhile II was created for the purpose of managing and organising your multimedia files. Its powerful feature-set lends itself as an ideal solution for cataloguing large collections of media content. Specifically, it is aimed at collections that traverse multiple storage devices and where it is otherwise inherently difficult to locate a particular file in a collection.

Through its easy-to-use interface, it is possible to quickly and easily locate any file in your collection and play it back.

Features include:

? Support for user's default Media Player
? Auto-creation of Library, including thumbnail generation
? Support for advanced Tagging, using hierarchies, links and synonyms (tag your tags!)
? Ability to perform complex, compound searches in order to identify and locate files (combine anything with anything!)
? Navigable Tag Cloud!
? Ability to create and playback ?highlight? segments from your files
? Facilitates basic editing of files (through external applications, where installed)
? Caters for collections that traverse many storage devices whether online or offline (HDDs/CDs/Data DVDs/RAM Disks/USB Drives/etc.)
? Ability to create and organise dynamic playlists
? Ability to generate ?Poster? images of files (commonly used as previews by file uploaders)
? Facilitates identification of duplicate files
? Supports real and virtual drives and UNC paths

Videophile II is a Direct Show-based application and, hence, it can play-back any media type for which your system has the necessary filters installed. My recommendation, if you are not already using it, is to have ffdshow installed, together with the Haali Media Splitter to handle MPEG-2 and Matroska streams. You may wish to supplement this a Flash (FLV) filter and either or both Real Alternative and Quicktime Alternative for, respectively, the Realmedia and Quicktime formats, although there is some doubt as to the legality of these filters.
