Hello! I am currently on the lookout for a versatile media management platform that goes beyond the traditional boundaries of organizing just one type of media. I am in search of a platform that can handle a diverse range of media types including books, games, videos, and more.
Here are some key features I am looking for in this platform:
- Cross-Media Support: Ability to organize and manage various types of media including books, games, videos, and more.
- Folder Scanning with “watch for changes” functionality: Automatically scan designated folders to add new media to the library whenever the folder content changes.
- Advanced Search Functionality: Robust search capabilities to easily locate specific media within the collection.
- Access Control: Grant permissions to users for sharing and accessing specific media content.
- Multi-Instance Support: Allow multiple instances of the program to be set up as endpoints.
- Federation Support: Enables the integration of multiple instances of the media management platform, allowing users to access and view a consolidated library comprising content from all federated instances.
- Metadata Sharing: Allow sharing metadata information across different instances of the platform for enhanced organization and categorization.
- Automatic Metadata Matching: Automatically associate metadata with files based on hash values for efficient curation.
- Perceptual Hashes: Enhances content recognition, deduplication and metadata association by creating unique identifiers based on media content rather than exact data.
- Manual Metadata Matching: Enable users to manually link files with similar content but different hashes.
- Collaborative Curation: Facilitate collaborative curation of shared media among users with matching content and endpoints.
If anyone is aware of a platform that encompasses these features or comes close to meeting these requirements, I would greatly appreciate any recommendations or insights you may have. Thank you in advance for your help!
