Recent changes

• Optimized speed in thumbnails importing and processing for several types of graphics files. Direct assembly code is used in some critical areas
  
• Fine-tuned the order of importing files and folders when scanning the media. On some newer non-removable media and related hardware, this can result in performance increase due to more efficient data caching
  
• Improved searching performance on multi-core CPUs
  
• Updated IMDB plugin for the latest changes on their web site, most notably importing rating information. By now, the same information from IMDB can come to the plugin in several different forms, depending on whether or not you are logged-in on IMDB site, if so what your selected preferences are, and which web browser are you using for retrieval, for example. The plugin at this time handles all cases
  
• Other miscellaneous minor adjustments and improvements.

WhereIsIt is an application written for 32-bit Windows operating systems, designed to help you maintain and organize a catalog of your computer media collection, including CD-ROMs, audio CDs, diskettes, removable drives, hard drives, network drives, DVDs, or any other media that Windows can access as a drive.

The most basic goal for WhereIsIt is to provide access to the contents of any media you have from a cataloged database, even if the media itself is not available on the system - you can browse lists of files and folders, search by any criteria, use descriptions, thumbnails, categories, flags, etc.

WhereIsIt can be used to handle any kind of data, including downloaded programs, magazine CD-ROMs, music collections like MP3s or audio CDs, graphics collections, document backups, etc. WhereIsIt can handle lots of them, too, a couple hundreds or thousands disks in a catalog is nothing unusual, yet catalogs remain reasonably small, single-filed and easy to transfer or send to other users. You can also create more than one catalog, and at any time open and work with as many catalogs at once as needed.

WhereIsIt is easy to use for both beginners and advanced users. It features a familiar and well thought-out, Explorer-like user interface, combined with strong searching and reporting capabilities, multi-language support, automated description and thumbnails importing through extendable plugins from more than 70 different sources, and much more besides.
