Do you have a favorite tool you use to log all of your archival video? Our challenge is that we have a ton of P2 (MXF) and a good amount of Prores and some AVCHD video built up over quite a few Terabytes of drives. Trying to locate a particular shot or clip is so incredibly time consuming. CatDV looks good but $650.00 seems a bit steep for what we need (Pro version with the .MXF option), we don't need page after page of metadata, just a simple tool that shows a thumbnail or sample clip, the name of the drive, scene breakdown. FOr those of you who have been at this business for many years, what do you use to keep track of and to locate a particular asset?
