Brief update on this - I've been updating y research on Spotlight - seems to work on the NAS well enough - and there are now a few projects working with tags and the like - mainly opting for using spotlight comments.
Latest thought is therefore to work with these projects and choose some keywords for this. *Spotlight keywords* There are a few attribute keys (common to many file types), that would be good to be able to set: - kMDItemIdentifier - kMDItemKeywords *Latest...* But until such time as I get round to writing Spotlight plugins or Cocoa programming then using the comment field and waiting for future developments seems like a good idea. NB - this metadata in the comments field is only an additional feature to the database - in that it allows the software to read this info and quickly import or locate an entry in the database - full hash support will be there but that is slow for large files. I am going to try to make this spotlight metadata two way compatible with a folder / bundle based structure similar to the one EyeTV uses - this would seem to allow the structure to be portable to Windows either just using the folders or as zipped files. Of course I could use stacks and embed the videos and metadata.... :) _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
