Scan My DVDs
July 26, 2004 3:50 PM Subscribe
I am in the process of creating a DVD of my sketch comedy group's work. This means I have to go through about fifty DV tapes in order to find the ones which have completed sketches rather than footage on them. In addition, many of the tapes are unlabelled. Is there some method or program which can scan a tape quickly and give me an overall impression of what's on it? (I'm thinking via thumbnails, but I presume there are other ways of doing it.)
Response by poster: Yup, this is pretty much what I'm looking for. Unfortunately, looks like this only runs in Windows, and I'm using OS X. And yes, it's outside my price range. (Although if you have any other suggestions, please give them, regardless of how much the software costs.)

Virage VideoLogger is great (I use it at work) but is most likely expensive.
Good luck.
