POLL: Do you use JRiver's Images?
flac.rules:
I use it occasionally, but would like to use it more, a good image-viewing tool is useful in a media-program.
tij:
not used it yet ... but planning to try ... something i look forward to is managing (sorting and tagging) through standard view on clients machine (as server side machine will be housed in dedicated room) ... then distributing it to other clients so family have access to all photoes (theatre view, JRemote, gizmo)
tagging and sorting from multiple clients (possibly at the same time) will help a lot as family members can help out with this enourmous task
Tried many managing tools ... Lightroom, ACDSee, and couple of others ... none of them are client/server oriented ... some of them allows other client to access database, but not edit ... their managing capability are awesome, but oriented at power users with no easy to anderstand interface for just accessing (searching and viewing)
Photo in iOS used to be great ... but then they move on to cloud :(
Trumpetguy:
I use it as my primary permanent storage and (keyword) tagging of photos. The browsing is fast (MC benchmark ~3800), and keyword-based filtering works really well.
I do not use image processing tools.
On the wish-list:
* I wish I could use JRemote to view them....
* MC to make use of gps data and present images in a (zoom-able) map
* More eye-candy improved timeline views
astromo:
Great capability.
It's used occasionally but it's a great organising / curating tool. Very glad that it's part of the package. The ability to easily assign meta tags and then set up views to suit makes MC even more useful.
RD James:
I can see some merit to it for photo sharing among Media Center clients or perhaps via Panel, but it's not something I personally have any use for.
I use Adobe's Lightroom to manage and edit my actual photography work.
What would make it useful for me is if it had support for GIF transparency and animation in all views.
So if I have a page of 60 thumbnails, they would show the background rather than a checkerboard, and they would all be animating at once.
But I don't know if that would be feasible. A web browser handles pages like that easily, but I've yet to find any image software which can do it, and it's the one type of content that I haven't found a good solution to manage.
I realize that's probably a niche request, and not what it's intended for though.
