video file sorting application

Hi,

I have written a little application for sorting video files. This is done by moving the video files to another directory and naming them as 0001.avi, 0002.avi and so on, so vegas imports them in the right order. It can also be specified if it's original sound, music, or a still image to be taken and a comment can be given. This data will then be save to a comma separated file, that can be imported by excel. Video files can also be moved up and down and removed. So, in fact what the utility does is moving files to another directory (the one where the csv file is located), and renaming them the right way. I wrote this, as I found it is a nice way, for sorting video files resulting of applications like scenalyzer, where you have one scene per file. Well, I wrote this application for my personal use, but if someone is interested in trying it, please inform me, and I will mail you the executable. .NET framework 1.1 is required in order to execute it. The applications is not yet well tested, but seems to work without any major problem, so be warned, and please don't complain if afterwards you are missing a file, but please simply inform me, so I can fix the bug. The application removes the files from the location from which you drop them to it, so for sure, it is wise to do a copy of this directory if footage can't be recaptured in worst case.

Bye,
David
