Thank you Alexey, Bruno and Adam for the encouraging feedback. I agree that video support should currently have priority and that Shotwell should keep its main focus on managing photos.

I tested it and it really works. Of course it would be nice if it would import the date, etc. information stored in the file but as a quick hack to start managing files based on events and tags it's usable. If Shotwell will include real audio support some day I do not fear to perform some SQL on the SQLite database file for clean-up :-) Thanks again, Tobias _______________________________________________ Shotwell mailing list [email protected] http://lists.yorba.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/shotwell
