Developer’s Description

By Vee-Hive Media
Catalog large collections of media content, even if it is stored across multiple storage devices.
Vee-Hive was created for the purpose of managing and organizing your multimedia files. Its powerful feature-set makes it an ideal solution for cataloging large collections of media content, even if that content is stored across multiple storage devices. 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 span multiple storage devices, whether connected or not (HDDs/CDs/Data DVDs/RAM Disks/USB Drives);Ability to create and organise dynamic playlists;Ability to generate Story Board images of files (commonly used as previews by file uploaders);Facilitates identification of duplicate files;Supports real and virtual drives and UNC paths;TV-Out mode allows Library management from your armchair (via a remote control or similar input device).Vee-Hive 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 32-bit LAV Filters installed.
