Active Rendering - "Audio-, Video- and Cover Management"
"The software collects and manages different kinds of audio and video files..."
"Sicne version 1 was published I am using this software to manage my DVD collection after having tested several other programs. I like especially the easy handling and the database access which has the big advantage that I hardly never have to enter any data myself.
But this program does not only support you to keep the overview on your DVD collection. Insert a music CD into your drive, Strg+N, and a few clicks more and the CD with all the title information including the preview cover is collected online from the CDDB.
Data from your hard disk or from other mediums such as e.g. MP3 (etc.) can be added to the database in one go through AutoAdding.
With various filters you may adapt search, sorting, print, and export functions to your own needs so that you do not loose overview...
Thanks to the loan management you always know which title you have lent a friend and you can keep track of it until it is returned...
Conclusion: The software is very comprehensive and very flexible for individual design thus enabling a very close adaption to the personal needs. Manual entries are reduced to a minimum due to the possibility to access the CDDB, the DVDDB, and CoverDB."

In the case of purchased CDs and DVDs the database queries online sources (CDDB, DVDDB, CoverDB) to complete missing information automatically.
The movie friend may of course complete details manually...in most cases with movies the database is filled in automatically even with details regarding actors and content.
If you change tag details for MP3 files in the database the program adapts these changes in the music files ..."

Shareware Spezial
"Multimedia well sorted"
"Music and movies are more and more played on PCs. The problem: It is very easy to loose overview. "M-DVD.Org" gets you that overview on a mouse click.
Felicitous features are: If an audio CD is inserted in the drive the program graps automatically the number and length of all tracks and incorporates that information into its database. To get also the titles of the songs the program links to CDDB in the internet.
Video DVDs can be managed with the program, too. The program not only records the title of the movie, denomination of the studio and the names of the actors. It is also possible to enter audio and video format, a summary and to name the DVD extras.
The AutoAdding function can readout complete mediums automatically thus collecting the information on all the music titles with no need to query the database.
Cool: Thanks to a provided plugin you can transfer a music file by double mouse click into the popular music player "Win-Amp"."

PC Pr@xis - "Media Management"
"A lot of database for little money"
"M-DVD makes a very professional impression not only at first sight. The program enables the collection of audio and video data and covers.
The software benefits very much from its online connection. You can read-out audio CDs at a mouse click and all further details are downloaded from the online database CDDB...
Especially good is the integration of WinAmp into the user interface. Even MP3 files which are stored on a network PC can be archived and you can play them at a mouse click in WinAmp.
The comprehensive database functions are very good, too. M-DVD not only allows a simple search for entries but also can handle complex queries with logic operations.
The content of the databse can be exported in HTML, as an Excel spreadsheet, and even as XML.
Especially convincing is the management of covers. After entering a search term M-DVD searches if necessary in an online database, downloads is at a mouse click, and archives it in the own database.
The downloaded covers can be linked with CDs and DVDs and if necessaray they can be printed.
The stability of the program is also striking. During our tests it did not crash a single time and thus pleasantly stands out from some other products...
Conclusion: By far the most sophisticated solution for management of CDs, DVDs and other media is without doubt M-DVD.Org. The program is easy to handle, offers all important functionality and saves an immense lot of work thanks to the online connection."
