I have used 'Photo-Commander' for keeping tabs on video, beginning with one of the earier versions. In it's current version it does this extremely well (and I'm talking 'a lot of video', 83 DVD's of it carrying an entire doucumentary series stretching over several years). I've tried 'the others' for this task, and none measures up. I use 'Photo-Commander' for video, the stills associated with the overall production, music and sound-effects, by using 'file-associations' to tie as much stuff in with it as possible. As a bonus, I have been able to delete several other items of software which claim to do the same thing, but simply don't measure up. 'Photo-Commander' 7 has earned the five-star rating given it by your reviewer, in my view.Ian Smith - Dunedin, New Zealand
