IJULIA81  The image is taken from Amazon, if I am not mistaken. For better image quality, find a high resolution cover on the web, save it to your desktop (or any other place) and drag it into VideoDrive when importing a file. :)  
(Version 1.7.7)

IJULIA81  The app is improving with every release. I've had problems with a previous version and the developer fixed it within hours. Again.

I collect TV shows and have more than 800 episodes, my two 500 gig external drives are almost full. Even though I could create the reference files myself, I am glad VideoDrive does it for me because it gets REALLY tiresome really soon. In addition, the feature to add the metadata is helpful when tagging episodes with all the necessary information.

The app is fast, stable and highly customizable, depending on what you want. I just need reference files, which are put in my iTunes library which is on an external drive; the originals remain in place on other external drives. It works beautifully.

As to the other comments: The developer never said that every file works on the mobile devices, he even states on the first page on his website: "Reconversion may be required."

And like I have described above, my iTunes library and the files are spread over three (3 !!!) separate drives, soon it will be four. It handles shortcuts without problems, as long as you don't move your files around. Even iTunes itself doesn't like that.

Overall, I think this app is great for everyone who doesn't want to go through the tedious procedure of creating reference files and who wants full metadata on self-added (non-iTunes purchased) files.  
(Version 1.6.8)

IJULIA81  Try that if you collecting TV shows and have more than 800 episodes! I am happily paying those dew dollars for VideoDrive to do that work for me.  
(Version 1.68)

IJULIA81  I am of course talking about VideoDrive, not Video Grabber. Sorry for the mixup.  
(Version 1.5.7.01)

IJULIA81  I love this application! Finally I can manage ALL my TV Shows and Movies within iTunes and the developers are great as well!

I had questions and some problems while importing and they got back to me within hours and even released an updated version of Video Grabber the same day, while checking back with me if my issues were resolved! Great support.  
(Version 1.5.7.01)

IJULIA81  I bought this software through a MU Promo deal. It took the developers a while (almost a day) to E-Mail me my serial number. As I learned later, the developers do have regular jobs and were not able to sent out serials throughout the day. This was an unfortunate lack in communications, because many of us are used to automatically generated serial numbers being sent out pretty fast. So, if you order and it takes a while, please take that into consideration.

The application itself is great and really suits my needs. I have many Movie Files in the .avi format that I cannot import into iTunes (some even don't get played in QT). So I was forever looking for a way to have them available in Frontrow. And here yFlicks comes in. You just drop your files in the app and it creates Aliases through which you can access all the files that yFlicks will accept in Frontrow. Cool!

If you store movies in yFlicks, you can also download Artwork from Amazon, though I haven't figured out yet where to change which Amazon to search (switch from the US Store to the German one for example). You can also import videos from YouTube and other sites into yFlicks (through an entry directly in Safari, how cool is that!!!) and you can export your movie files to a couple of different formats.

Those are all the cool features of yFlicks.

Unfortunately, it also has a downside: It get's incredibly slow. I have about 100-150 files in there, separated in Groups and Sub-Groups, but switching between groups sometimes takes up to 10-15 seconds. Adjusting the title of a movie to enable search on Amazon also takes about 15 seconds. And I am running on a MacBook (late 2006) 2 Ghz CD, 2 GB memory.

Overall: yFlicks does the job I want it to do: It enables me to watch all my video files in Frontrow, which is really, really great. The sluggish performance is annoying, but since I now only add files and don't do anything else, I can live with it.  
(Version 3.0.3)

IJULIA81  Update: I bought this app today, about 12 hours ago - I still haven't heard from the developers, I didn't get a serial number. The website is not reachable anymore.

I contacted one of the developers per email, no response either.

Unfortunately, my first enthusiasm evaporated: Though the app enables me to use front row with not native Quick Time Files, the app is incredibly slow when handling more than 20 files, it freezes often and crashed on my a couple of times. Now I can't really use it anymore, because the trial mode kicked in and since I don't have a serial, I can't unlock it.

Hey guys from Manytricks, get a move on!  
(Version 3.0)

IJULIA81  Just bought it ... the Front Row integration is awesome, but what is even better: I can finally manage all my TV show files (which are mostly not .mov or .mp4 files) from within Front Row - no need to convert the files anymore. This saves me a huge amount of time - I couldn't be happier!  
(Version 3.0)

IJULIA81  This sounds like a cool app. Since I am using a tablet and a pen instead of a mouse it is sometimes wary for me to switch from keyboard to pen to perform certain tasks. Bein g able to do this all from the keyboard would help me immensely. I'd really like this app.  
(Version 2.1)

IJULIA81  Sounds interesting ... never thought about that concept.  
(Version 1.2.2b)

IJULIA81  I've tried the word processor (came free with a magazine once), but I went for Mellel.ö What I like is the spreadsheet feature. That's something I am still looking for.  
(Version 12.56)

IJULIA81  Great, I have considered purchasing this app for a while and now I really have to look into it again ;)

Will be great for training purposes.
