How WinCatalog 2024 DVD Archive Software works

WinCatalog DVD archive software scans your DVDs, remembers all the folders, files, and some additional information about your files such as ID3 or Exif tags, thumbnails for pictures and video files, contents of the archives and ISO files, parts of text files, tags from saved web pages, thumbnails for PDF files, etc.

The main goal of WinCatalog DVD Archive Software is to give an ability to browse and search through your catalog even if when a DVD is not inserted to a computer.

For example, your files can be located on a removable hard drive, on a shared network folder, or burned on a CD, DVD, or a Blu-ray disc, and you will be able to find files with WinCatalog DVD Archive Software and even preview their properties, including picture thumbnails, before inserting or connecting a DVD or any other disk to a computer.

Otherwise (if you do not use WinCatalog), in order to find a file you would need to connect DVDs, CDs or other disks or insert DVDs, CDs one-by-one to find a specific file.

In other words, WinCatalog DVD Archive Software saves your time and efforts in finding files on DVDs wherever they are located.

WinCatalog can extract Exif and thumbnails

An ability to extract and store in a catalog thumbnails of graphic files (photos, pictures, RAW-images), as well as EXIF data of digital photographs

Thanks to WinCatalog 2024 DVD Archive software you can automatically create and store thumbnails of graphic files saved in all popular formats (JPEG, PNG, BMP, ICO, GIF, Tiff, WMF, and EMF) or RAW image formats produced by most of modern digital cameras.

Powerful search function

The advanced catalog search algorithm, search results filtering, simultaneous multi-search, duplicate file finder

WinCatalog DVD Archive software implements both the typical search algorithm using simple queries and the advanced search using logical operators AND, OR, parenthesis and quotes - this makes the search more precise and provides for exact matching catalog search results. And since you can filter search results any way you want, you can find the desired catalog element almost instantly. Besides, search results can be grouped together using one or more criteria to find duplicate files quickly.

Contact management

Contacts, tags and storage management (including virtual folders usage)

  • Contact management allows you to control who you give a certain disk to.
  • Tag management allows you to assign a set of keywords (tags) to every element for quicker and more accurate search. While arranging the collection across virtual folders using drag'n'drop leaving the actual file and folder structure intact allows you to manage your disk catalog better.
  • Storage management allows you to add all possible disk storage places to the program. This could be, for instance, "box #1", "DVD holder #2", shelf for hard disk drives #1, etc., and to assign matching collection elements with every storage place. This is an enormous time saver when you have hundreds of disks and other media.

WinCatalog 2024 can generate reports

Report generation and XML, HTML or CSV (e.g. for MS Excel and other applications) export and printing

WinCatalog customers say:

"I love this program WinCatalog wich I looked for years to solve my problems.

As a photographer I store more hundred thousands full size digital images. I needed a strong and reliable application to make this huge image base manageable.

My pics stored on several small and full size Hdds, CDs and DVDs off-line and on-line, too. I wanted to find my individual image fast, easy and reliable.

The working method, the good way is not only to search for a file but to see also the thumbnail picture too for easy identification.

It works and I am happy to find WinCatalog for this job as the right solution and program. Recently I got more than 2 TByte data scanned by WinCatalog.

It helps me day by day to find my pics :) I am glad to find and use this application as my great help whitout I could not use my huge amount picture base.

I also use this program to find fast my documents and stored other files as a high capacity file searcher and register.

It offers to photographers and to all those who keep more thousands images or other files on HDD and storages to manage and find their important files.

It is great to find my induvidual pics from previous years the right files at the identified place in the right time.

Thank you guys for developing this unique program I've been looking for years!"

"This program is just what I needed to catalog my audio and video files. Now I can find my audio and video titles with just a press of a key. Many thanks for a great program."

Gordon Gentry

"Excellent software! Thank you for sticking to conventional look & feel as much as possible — it makes the program very intuitive to use. Also, the nested virtual folders alone are worth the money — no one else seems to understand or implement this feature correctly."

James Lohman

"By the way — fantastic program. I had used WinCatalog Light years ago. Now bought copies of Pro for myself and my wife for work and pleasure. Having cataloged old drives I have been able to easily find things I had long forgotten."
