abeMeda 7.8.7 now also supports imorting WinCatalog XML exports - analog to the already supported catalog formats. You can create reports of your WinCatalog data, and export them to xml - and then import those XML into new catalog files in abeMeda.
And if you still have the original discs and media, you can then connect those imported catalogs to their actual volumes, and update them using their original files - in order to add thumbnails and a lot more data to them that the import can not supply.

Check out this and many other improvements in our new abeMeda 7.8.7: https://abemeda.com/en/news_files/abeMeda787.html

with abeMeda 7.8.7 we have now established much better access to the stored data in our catalogs, mainly the stored previews. With the hugely enhanced Photo Export you can now make use of the generated previews, even if the original files may not (or no longer) be available.
And you can of course not only export and convert photos, but many more media files (like videos, audio files' cover art, PDFs, books [ePub] or comics [CBR|CBZ], ...) - any files' previews can also be exported now.
This can be useful if an external storage is temporarily out of reach, or even extremely helpful to salvage files after a data loss, when you have only your catalogs left.

The new abeMeda 7.8 adds a new custom selection to the display filter:
This allows you to combine multiple item characteristics when filtering your files. All the item kinds and attributes already offered in the display filter can now be selected and applied concurrently, to even better define the files you are looking for. As before, it can also be applied to album contents and found item results.

Read more about it in the documentation, and try it out, in the new abeMeda 7.8! https://abemeda.com/en/news_files/abeMeda78.html

It has sadly been far too quiet around here in the past few weeks. Time to let you in on the latest we're brewing in our current development. For example, we have implemented the image sequence detection, that can drastically speed up cataloging in folders with e.g. huge collections of video still images.

Also, analog to the latest NeoFinder 8.6, we have added a new custom display filter, capable of combining different file kinds and attributes to tailor the displayed items to your requirements.

You can look forward to these, and a number of other new features in the upcoming next release of abeMeda in May - along with the many existing capabilities you already know, of course.

Q: How can I save a Quick Find? Whenever I leave the found items, I lose it and have to search again.

A: Your last used query and its results are kept, and of course stay always available in the Find dialog, until you run a new Find query.
Whenever you leave the Find results to explore items, you can return to the last Find results by simply clicking the Find icon in the toolbar!

Also, to persistently keep your Find query or its results, e.g. to survive the next app restart, you can save your query to the SmartFolders, or the Found Items into an album.

Q: Is there a way to backup our catalog database, so we don’t have to rebuild it completely in case something goes wrong?

A: That’s actually very easy - since abeMeda’s catalogs are plain files, you can simply copy them to a different location to create a backup. Use “Show catalog file” or “Show in Explorer” on the Library to reveal the files themselves, and then copy them manually, or create a scheduled task for that. Best do it at night, so there are no current activities or updates on the catalog files while you copy them. Read about it in our FAQ: http://www.abemeda.de/en/en/faq.html#backupLibrary
