Hi Raja, Nutch is mainly used for crawling web pages, text and human readable files. It can be used to fetch the binary content of a given url. There was a mp3 parser in nutch back in older versions but now its been removed. I am wondering what you want to do in "image/ video search". If you want to work on the meta-data available about the song / video, then that data can be obtained by nutch and used for indexing. That need not require you to crawl the entire corpus of songs and videos (which will consume lot of disk space). I have never tried this before but I think it should work.
