One of the massive major new features in NeoFinder 9.0 is the ability to directly import photos and videos from connected photo cameras and iOS devices.
The NeoFinder Users Guide has now more about that:
NeoFinder 9.0 has a new tool to very quickly create groups of person names that can be assigned to one or many selected media files with just a single click!
That makes it easy to annotate a very large number of files with Person information.
The NeoFinder Users Guide shows you how to set it up and use it:
NeoFinder 9.0 comes with many new web gallery templates to present your photos, one of them is called "Dark Lucid with Slideshow" and it shows your pictures with a black background and also has a built-in slideshow.
A massive new feature in NeoFinder 9.0 for macOS is the ability to create not just ONE, but FOUR thumbnails of a video file, just like a small video contact sheet.
This will give you a much better overview of what is in these long video recordings!
Setting this up is super easy, just one click in the Cataloging Settings.
We have updated the NeoFinder Users guide with more details:
