How to manage many MPEG-2 files?

[nickflyger]

I have been crawling the web and forums for a while now looking for a simple library/database type program. Basically I want to apply tags or keywords to many MPEG-2 video files. Then use a program to sort through a folder of those videos and play only those with a certain tags/keywords I select (or queue them up in Win Media Player or similar).

I guess it is a database type program I am looking for, however the main issue is I will be sharing some (but not all) videos with others so I just want to give them a program which can read the tags/keywords directly from the files and doesn't require additional files which store the tags and relate them to the files. That way I can send additional videos and not worry about updating databases etc...

Is there anything out there which can do this?

Cheers
Nick

Welcome nickflyger

Got_All_Media has search function and media tagging

SesamTV and Xbmc ... you could always ask them to implement the tag and search function for video

I did find another payware version ... about $39 ... but would have to go through history to locate the link again
