Best Software This may be mixed in another thread, but it may be nice to have a concise list. If you could answer these questions: What do you use as; 1. Picture Viewer 2. Video Player (wmv, mpeg, dvix, avi, qt) 3. Download Manager Photos 4. Download Manager Videos 5. File Management Tool ---- I use the following 1. ACDSee - There may be something better, not satisfied 2. Windows Media Player - is there a better option? 3. FlashGet - Works well, but I would like to save my login information when working with mutliple sites. 4. FlashGet - See Above 5. I simply use Windows Explorer - Any other options?

I have been using: Internet Download Manager Download Them All D-System's Keyboard Remapper Aaron's Webvacuum And just got Free Download Manager These four seem to work pretty well for everything I do. I mostly use IDM though. The keyboard remapper is to make renaming files easier as I download them. Sometimes I have to use a combination of text files, Excel, a personal webpage, and Word to get the job done. I have to use this method with HungarianHuneys. Playboy can also be downloaded partly by this method as well.

ACDSee is pretty good. I don't believe it is the best option. It allows you to rename file fairly easily and give you a good preview of each folder. It also has a video player that is decent. I'm sure there is something that works better. Kinky | Inky | Pinky | Stinky <><><> Give em to me Hotter than Fire <><><> | |

1. Picture Viewer - ACDSee Pro Version 2 2. Video Player - WMP, nothing special 3. Download Manager Photos - NeoDownloader 2.3c / Opera 4. Download Manager Videos - Opera 5. File Management Tool - Free Commander Details: 1. ACDSee Pro V2 is fast, and capable of doing just about whatever you'd need to edit anything. Faster viewing than anything else I've ever used. (Note that I set it up not to show thumbnails, but rather, the biggest preview picture I can fit onscreen, while I soldier on through a list of files.) I do amazing things with the batch processor to wrangle things to fit into a number of different situations. It's very effective and efficient in terms of resizing, cropping, and doing simple file editing tasks. 2. I'm not so much into videos -- I mainly use Nero's video programs to record them onto DVD-R's. 3. NeoDownloader is a pretty simple yet effective auto downloader. I've been able to get some things done efficiently, without spidering the whole dang site. 3/4. Opera can do some pretty interesting things to speed things up. Open up the "links" panel, and, depending upon how a site is built, it could show you links to every JPEG file on the open page. Highlight those, right-click and choose to "save to download folder," and you're off and running! The "save to download folder" is also a right-click option on web pages -- I'll do that on all of the video files on a page, and get those going, straight away. 5. Free Commander is one of the most valuable tools I've ever found. Especially if you've got a wide-screen monitor (and you should go get one if you don't!), just set this up in dual-pane mode, and send files whizzing back and forth without all of the insane dragging and dropping nonsense. It will "unpack" (unzip) multiple zip files, popping them into separate folders under your destination folder, if you so choose. And on and on and on. Oh. And the "free" part is the best part -- it's totally free. Just Google for it, you'll find it. ACDSee Pro 2 and Free Commander are absolutely the most powerful tools I've ever found for dealing with massive amounts of picture files, zip files, and so on. I couldn't recommend them more highly!

Question #1 - The funny thing is that I'm starting to get into collecting the pics and vids of specific models. Let's say I like Bree Olsen (which is true). She is on 45 different sites including VideoBox and other DVD sites. I needs to keep my files in the folders and directories for each website, so that I know where I am when I come back to a site to continue downloading. I like to keep the files in the site folders and then creat shortucts to those files in a folder dedicated to the model. There has got to be a better way. Must be a program or database that will let me organize them and line them. Question #2 - Another thing I'm doing is using windows explorer to view things like bit rate, title and comments by default. I have to set this for each folder. This allows me to enter in this information for VideoBox vids, so that I can search for Specific Models easy with Windows Explorer search. Any Ideas for a better way for either of these tasks? I really need a database that allows me to search by these variables. Kinky | Inky | Pinky | Stinky <><><> Give em to me Hotter than Fire <><><> | |

After quite as few years in the game two major softwares: Photos: ACDSee (great software) Videos: VLC Media Player (and sometimes: Crystal Player). Both simple in viewing and in use. (I really dislike the Windows Media Players). "I don't drink anymore - I freeze it, and eat it like a popcicle" | |

This looks to be a great thread, but it's 4 years old. As with anything related to computers, four years is an eternity. Perhaps it is time this was brought to the forefront. Anyone have anything to add? unless life also gives you water and sugar, your lemonade is gonna suck. | |

What do you use as; 1. Picture Viewer: 2. Video Player (wmv, mpeg, dvix, avi, qt) 3. Download Manager Photos 4. Download Manager Videos 5. File Management Tool 1-I use the image viewer that came with Nero 8 2-I normally use VLC or Windows Media Player. I don't have a particular preference when playing standard videos because both work fine but VLC is the only player I know that will play stuff that no othe rplayer can manage. 3&4. I use the download manager included with Windows 7 when I'm using IE and Download Them All when I'm using Firefox. 5-I use whichever one comes with Window 7. Long live the Brown Coats. | |

File Management Tool ACDSEE and Picassa are good for pictures. KMPlayer for videos I use and have for a few years . Xplorer Pro plays videos and pictures as well as slideshow and is a nice file manager. There is a free version and the pro I have. As far as the others non particular are awesome.

1. Xnview 2. MPC-HC or VLC 3 + 4 I wrote my own as none of the available ones were automated enough 5. Windows Explorer The problem with the world is stupidity. Not saying there should be capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself? Frank Zappa | |

What do you use as; 1. Picture Viewer: 2. Video Player (wmv, mpeg, dvix, avi, qt) 3. Download Manager Photos 4. Download Manager Videos 5. File Management Tool 1. Navigation Pane in Windows Explorer or Windows Photo Viewer 2. VLC 3. BulkImageDownloader 4. Just the download manager in Firefox 5. Windows Explorer I also have a question for you guys. Do any of you know a really great download manager for photos? BulkImageDownloader is okay, but it doesn't work on all sites, which leaves me having to click through all of the thumbnails by hand. I still haven't tired of the hunt and putting in the long hours, but I would still like a better solution. A download manager where you can configure or script the way it crawls a site would be ideal. I really need something to save me some time, because I'm taking a promotion in about a month, and it means I'll start working very long hours. I'll have less time to surf the net no matter what, but anything to speed things up will help. Better to be pissed on, than to be pissed off. | |

Commendable, Mr. Clyde, for a very timely and productive thread. Since, unfortunately, I no longer have selective permission to open many of my older collection of files ..... as well as of any previous operational powers or System tools ..... indeed, even administrative name and ownership are seized and are now under new rule. My Avast premium Virus software, loaded with State-of-the-art protection, inclusive of, but certainly not limited to, covering every volubility known to man ...... It now ,however, is under confinement to any malware and/or viral directives effecting movable parts and metering devices .... all of which are now at the helm. The effects of which basically rendering 'ole Moe (my puter's name) officially brain-dead. Now left floundering, helplessly adrift on a merciless sea, whose once life-saving shore lines have vanished. So, Mr. Clyde, lets just hope my computer's army of Hackers, key-loggers, armored firewall crashers, and all accompanying thievery vermin in control, will continue to allow me token usage of my computer needs. | |

This thread is ancient but it's definitely due for an update. Please contribute with your current 2021 software recommendations. As for me, I use: 1. Picasa (no longer supported by Google) -I like this software because it is lightweight and opens your picture in fullscreen with a minimal user interface. It comes with basic photo editing tools such as rotate, crop, etc. Nothing fancy but it gets the job done well. 2. PotPlayer -This is a free, feature-rich software much like VLC. I prefer it to VLC due to the deep customization features and ease of use. To maximize file compatibility, I also have the K-Lite codec pack installed (not required). 3. Internet Download Manager. -This software is well worth the $25 they ask for a lifetime license. It downloads files quickly using multiple servers and has browser integration plugins for one-click downloads. WARNING: This and other file downloaders may violate some websites user agreements and you could get you account banned if they do not allow this kind of software. I found this out the hard way. 4. For most photos I just use my regular browser (right-click, "Save image as") but Internet Download Manager can be used for this as well. 5. I currently use Windows Explorer but I use Q-Dir occasionally when moving lots of files from drive-to-drive. Q-Dir offers a 4-window view, which I have yet to find in other file managers. | |

In 2021 I'm currently using: 1. IrfanView image viewer (it also does file format conversions, batch renames and more). 2. VLC Media player, it plays almost anything you throw at it and supports subtitle files (.SRT) which at least one porn site provides as a download option. It also makes getting screen captures a doddle. 3. For Download Manager Photos and videos I use DownThemAll browser extension, though I'm using the older more functional version on an older/compatible version of Firefox browser. Yes, it's more vulnerable to malware but I'm careful and have a good antivirus package that I keep up to date. 5. File Management Tool, I used to use XYplorer (got it free on a magazine cover disc) and it's great, but I now use Directory Opus (aka DOPUS), which is by far and away _the_ best file manager out there. It provides loads of features (which most people won't need) but for anyone who likes to customize their collection of downloaded content, it'll provide all the functionality you need. DOPUS is expensive though, but if you can wait, ther's always a 40% discount in the New Year so if you download the trial version and like it, purchase a license when the sale is on in January. | |

Thanks for the useful suggestions. I use Irfanview already. Use VLC already. I didn't want to use an older version of Firefox, so I recently bought Internet Download Manager. IDM is easy to use, and it can download videos from some paysites, which is handy. I never liked the updated Down Them All program. The older version was much easier to use. I should use a file management tool. My drives are very dis-organized. Again, thanks for the helpful advice. | |

The only way a web site could detect a download manager is if there are multiple connections from the same IP address downloading different files simultaneously. If possible, you should configure your DL manager so that only one file is downloaded at a time with no concurrent downloads. Yeah, it kinda defeats the object of a DL manager but mine allows me to export all the file info to import into a spreadsheet, so I have a list of filenames, sizes, the URL they were downloaded from, all useful info. | |

I use Paint.net to view pictures because I like to create stories by adding captions to the pictures. I use VLC for video. It allows me to record portions of a video or take snapshots. It also operates better then any Windows player I ever had. I do not have a special download manager. I get everything I need as fast as I need with my current browser; FireFox.
