Digital Media Base is a portable media management system that creates a database of media assets on your hard-drive or peripheral drives. To maximize browsing and sorting, all the assets are represented by low-resolution copie or icon, linked to the original, allowing for fast search and retrieval. Special attention was given to browsing methods and the implementation of a robust set of features applicable to the handling of the assets including e-mail, batch image processing, tagging, watermarking, and sorting.
