Browsing your media
Open media
Section titled “Open media”- File ▸ Open Directory loads a whole folder.
- File ▸ Open File opens a single clip.
- Double-clicking a supported media file in Explorer opens it in ReelMarkr, and you can pass files on launch.
Thumbnail or list view
Section titled “Thumbnail or list view”Toggle View ▸ Toggle Views ▸ Thumbnail/List:
- Thumbnail grid: visual contact-sheet of the folder (thumbnails load as you scroll).
- List: a sortable table with columns (name, date, size, type, duration, and more). Click a column header to sort.
Click any item to open it in the viewer.
Navigate
Section titled “Navigate”- A directory dropdown shows where you are; jump up to the parent folder at any time.
- Recent folders are remembered, clear them with Settings ▸ Clear Directory History.
Search
Section titled “Search”Type in the search box to find media across your indexed folders, not just the one you’re in.
Favorites
Section titled “Favorites”Mark files as favorites to find them again fast. Favorites are stored per person in
a ReelMarkr_data/Favorites file next to the media, and a shared common favorites
view surfaces files that several people on a shared drive have favorited.
File versions
Section titled “File versions”When a folder holds several versions of the same shot (named with version suffixes), ReelMarkr groups them so the list stays clean, and lets you switch between versions and jump to the latest.
