I have a working library of pictures and music both are of over 40Gs. I categorized them and I can browse and pull out any one of them in any instant. I also have a working library for my movies and I think it is working well.

Yet, I do NOT have any system for my home videos. They are all in raw tapes that I video taped over the last 10 yrs and put it aside. I have about 60+ home video tapes. Each one is about 2 hrs. I have no idea what are those, and certainly I cannot pull out any one of those. It got to the point, I just dont want to use camcorder any more. Now I am preparing for a China trip and my wife is asking to pull out the camcorder... It is worse than pulling teeth. I wonder if anyone feel proud about your home videos, NOT movies, category system and would like to share. Free software or paid software or shareware does not matter, I just want those )@($& tapes categorized, so that i know where to retrieve them when need. I do not even know, whether I should all digitalize them and store it or just store in its raw format. Bottomline, I have no idea how to deal with video tapes organization.

TIA,
