    Hi everyone,

    I am looking for a way to make my video library my easy to navigate. Is there any way to control the size of the folders in the library?

    Is there any to attach a summary to divx files, such as a txt file in the same folder, so when I scroll over a video file it gives me information like the tv guide does?

    Thanks

    I'm certain you can't resize the folders in the Video Library and I've never seen anything like that for DIVX. Maybe someone else has?

    The only thing I have found previously are some very old, little utilities for changing mainly the Title field in AVI files.

    In Vista I always used the shortcut method to get the video's to display in VMC. This meant they were not in the WMP11 Library.

    Now in Windows 7 I am using the WMP12 Manage Libraries for Video and my AVI's are in the WMP12 Library.

    As a result even though my file names are accurate and correct. The title field in the AVI header is often incorrect or what ever the encoder put in to the title field. This now shows up in WMP12 and MC7 and is some what of a pain when they are not showing the title text you want to see.

    Which is why I was looking at these utilties to edit the headers in the AVI file.

    The best one from reading about it was "Mid AVI Tag Editor" That seemed to do allot more than just edit the title field. Like adding Genre and other similar types of fields. But I cannot get the application to even run.

    I then found two more utilities called "IDivX AVI Tagger" and I can't find the name of the other one now maybe I did not save it? Anyways one of these did enable me to edit the title field in the AVI file
    and then the title I wanted to see was visible in WMP12 / MC7.
