FXMOVIEMANAGER 10.0.1 (development version); Copyright (C) 2008-2016 Luigi Ziviani.
ABOUT:
FxMovieManager is a Filemanager written to help managing Movie files and Video clips.
It includes a twin-panel filemanager, a playlist table and act as a simple front-end
to mplayer and mpv. It has also bult-in internal players that require libmpv.
Both filemanagers and playlist table can display Thumbnails of Movie files making
easier working with video clips and ordering different pieces of the same movie.
At present it is developed on the Linux platform.
USE:
README FIRST:
The simplest way to associate mime-type icons to file extensions is to click on the [logo icon] that
open the configuration dialog, click the [M.Types icon] and then the button [use_default_settings].
FXMovieManager has the following integrated functions:
1) Twin-Panel File Manager with sizable Movies Thumbnail (thumbnails creation place),
2) Play Table with Movies Thumbnail (that can be saved to a file and reloaded),
3) Front-end to mplayer, mpv, and built-in players (it requires libmpv),
4) Clipboard Management (Cut/Copy/Paste),
5) File Operations Dialog (Rename/Copy/Move/Simlink) with Movie Thumbnail,
6) File Information Dialog (file properties, Audio and Video format),
7) File Permissions Dialog (read, read/write, read/write/execute, owner, group),
8) Movie Information Dialog (audio and video codec information) with Movie Thumbnail,
9) File Search Engine with file selection Dialog,
10) Devices Search with device selection Dialog,
11) File Extension Associations Dialog (icons, Mime-Types, commands),
12) Theme Selection Dialog (several types of buttons and themes are available),
13) Language Selection Dialog (EN, IT, FR, DE, ES, RU, CN, JP, USER_DEFINED),
14) Thumbnails Customization Dialog (for libffmpegthumbnailer only).
I have create this program because I looked for a File Manager
that had to be Light, able to show Thumbnails and Play movie files.
This program uses libffmpegthumbnailer to create movie thumbnails and saves them
as hidden files e.g.'.moviename_thumbnail.jpg' under the current movie directory.
All these hidden files can be deleted with the [Delete Thumbnails] button.
In case libffmpegthumbnailer is not present, this program uses mplayer.
MPlayer/MPV control buttons: [Audio], [Drop], [Pause] and [Stop] write
to a pipe file in a Temp. directory (e.g. /tmp/.fxmm-root/fifo);
this directory is user-specific to allow for multi-user access.
Three other utilities are included with the main program:
* FXArchive (simple archive utility using tar,zip,unzip,gzip,bzip2,7zip,unrar)
* FXScanvirus (simple virus scanner utility using libclamav)
* FXTxtView (simple text editor with undo/redo count and word find dialog)
To obtain more information you can have a look at the fxmoviemanager.1 manual or
download the illustrated manual at <http://sourceforge.net/projects/doc/fxmoviemanager.pdf>
