Features of MediaFiler 3.0

MediaFiler is a sophisticated database program for the video, film, sound, media, advertising, television, cable, communications, and entertainment industries – in fact, any business that has important tapes and disks to keep track of, needs MediaFiler.

MediaFiler allows you to keep tabs on all kinds of media assets (i.e., XDCAM, XDCAM HD, HDCAM, P2, Betacam, DVD, DVCAM, CD, DAT, DLT, HDD, Zip, Mini-DV, DVCPRO, VHS, Hi-8, Hard Drives, Blu-ray, and all others) through a powerful, yet simple to use interface.

With MediaFiler, finding any videotape, disk, or group of items is fast and easy, with just a few clicks of the mouse.

MediaFiler can be learned quickly because it uses familiar Windows commands and menus. It is designed to be deceptively simple for most users, but robust enough to meet the demands of power-users.

MediaFiler is a stand-alone program that does not require any other software to run, but your data files are fully compatible with many other software products so you can use programs like Microsoft Access, Excel and Word to create an infinite number of customized functions to meet any special needs you may have.

How long would it take you, right now, to print out a list of every tape and disk in your archives belonging to a particular client? With MediaFiler, you could do it in less than 15 seconds. No kidding, and that's just one of the hundreds of things that MediaFiler can do with practically no effort at all.

Unlike ordinary databases which force you to spend hours and hours customizing them to do what you need them to do, MediaFiler is built specifically for the needs of our industry — by people in our industry.

Eventually your copy of MediaFiler will contain hundreds or even thousands of records, and that is when the power of MediaFiler will really become evident. With other tracking methods, it can be a challenge to locate the exact records you want to see or use. Fortunately MediaFiler provides several ways for you to quickly find any information you need.

When you are entering a lot of records that are nearly identical (such as raw footage tapes) you can copy and paste entire records to create identical records faster. After copying and pasting, you can then edit the individual records to make additional changes.

You can sort records in any order you want, search for a particular record, edit records, show only records that match criteria you specify, duplicate records, delete records, rearrange the order of the columns, hide columns from view, and much more.

With 18 fields of data for every record, the possibilities are endless. But don't be overwhelmed, because all the data is optional and can be entered, changed, updated, or deleted at anytime from any MediaFiler window! Just use the fields you want, and leave the rest of them blank.

Keeping information about your important media assets up-to-date will save you countless hours of wasted time, stress, and embarrassment.

Finding a specific record, or a group of records, with MediaFiler takes just a few seconds. MediaFiler can search through the entire database or just a single field. If you don't know the exact value you want to find, you can even use wildcard characters to help find what you're looking for. Most of MediaFiler's powerful tools are easily available by just clicking with the right-mouse button.
