Following is the detailed introduction of it.
MediaMan is a media manager for all our digital and print media, including books, video games, DVDs, software or music CDs and VHS tapes. We can enter our items by typing or scanning their barcode, or search for them by keyword on international Amazon sites or the Library of Congress. The program automatically imports cover images, descriptions and other details, including user reviews (if available). If we do not have a barcode scanner, MediaMan offers an option to use our webcam to scan the barcode. In addition, MediaMan provides a free trial for us but only can be free used 30 days and some functions of it are disabled. It is standalone software and does not need any extra software and hardware requirement. MediaMan does not contain any adware or spyware. It works with Win2000/XP/Vista and its current version is 2.71.3. The price of the registration version is only $39.95 and we can get update and upgrade free.
The key features and benefits of this media collector include:
1. MediaMan is all-in-one. We don't need separate tools for different types of items. MediaMan is so powerful that we can use it to organize virtually everything, from books to Blu-rays, from sports cards to paintings.
2. MediaMan is capable of retrieving content from Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk, Amazon.de, Amazon.co.jp, Amazon.fr, Amazon.ca, as well as a selection of other websites. Content retrieval from Amazon is enabled using the Amazon web service program, and Amazon Associate program.
3. Elegant Design, is not just about good looking. MediaMan features elegant interface design. MediaMan used some of the most advanced technologies to establish its user interface. Every little bit of the program is fine-tuned to be visually pleasant, not only on our desktop, but also on a large screen TV. But, there's more. Good looking is not enough. MediaMan's user interface is also quite easy to operate. The program is designed to require minimum user-intervention. It doesn't need us to answer a lot of questions or pick a lot of options when accomplishing common tasks. Most jobs can be done via a single click or drag and drop.
4. Can import of items be done via a single mouse click Of course! Just press "Import" on the toolbar, and MediaMan will switch to import mode. Our webcam shall be started within seconds. Then, we only have to flash the barcode part of our items in front of the webcam. When we hear MediaMan beeps, our job is done.
5. MediaMan will automatically search for the description of our item from Amazon. When this process completes, we'll see the item appearing in our collection. See how easy that was Doesn't have a webcam No worries, we can still use our keyboard to enter the title, or get a USB barcode scanner to scan-in the data.
6. The blue part of the text is not just to distinguish important stuff. They are functional links that we can click to access more functions. MediaMan was designed to replace buttons and save our precious screen space while still offering quick access to common features. Take the bottom pane for example. It allows us to change sorting options as well as navigate between categories. Even when the category pane is hidden, we still get a chance to choose other categories.
7. When we have a big collection. It can be difficult to locate anything, even with keyword searching, and nested categories. That's when tagging comes handy. Tagging is like putting labels on the items. This allows us to organize based on subjects, locations, genre or anything on our mind. We can create tags by editing the tag field, or assign tags using drag and drop. MediaMan will display related tags if multiple tags are assigned to items.
8. MediaMan goes beyond cataloging. We can attach audio and video files on our hard drive to the items inside the collection, so that we can play them directly inside MediaMan. MediaMan turns into a jukebox when we click "Play Music" or "Play Video" on the left. All items that have files attached are playable. We can arrange the playlist the way we like.
In a word, MediaMan is a must-have program for every book collector and book lover! Want to get your book collection organized! Download and try it now!
