Operational area: With GERBING fotoalbum (fotos.exe) you can look selectively for fotos or videos in a data base in which you have stored keywords and location. After the search in the data base you can display the found fotos or videos. At the installation a small example data base is laid out. Enlarging the example data base to your own data base is very simply possible with the tool Fotosmdb. GERBING fotoalbum also can be started directly from a CD or DVD. A data base is the only one way out, if users can not overlook or find again their variety of fotos or videos any more. Data types/Formats: The program fotos.exe distinguishes at the fotos in - native data types - link data types Native data types are 'BMP', 'CUR', 'DIB', 'EMF', 'GIF', 'ICO', 'JPG', 'WMF'. A native data type is immediately understood by the internal processing functions and all navigation requests like 'Go to another foto' or zoom work in a flash. Link data types are 'ANI', 'B3D', 'CAM', 'CLP', 'CPT', 'CRW', 'CR2', 'DCM', 'ACR', 'IMA', 'DCX', 'DDS', 'DXF', 'DWG', 'ECW', 'EMF', 'EPS', 'FPX', 'FSH', 'ICL', 'ICS', 'IFF', 'LBM', 'IMG', 'JP2', 'JPC', 'J2K', 'JPM', 'KDC', 'LDF', 'LWF', 'MNG', 'JNG', 'SID', 'DNG', 'EEF', 'NEF', 'MRW', 'ORF', 'RAF', 'DCR', 'SRF', 'PEF', 'X3F', 'NLM', 'NOL', 'NGG', 'PBM', 'PCD', PCX', 'PGM', 'PIC', 'PNG', 'PPM', 'PSD', 'PSP', 'RAS', 'SUN', 'RAW', 'RLE', 'SFF', 'SFW', 'SGI', 'RGB', 'SWF', 'TGA', 'TIF', 'TTF', 'WAD', 'WAL', 'XBM', 'XPM', 'WBMP', 'TIFF', 'PICT', 'QTIF', 'JPEG', 'FITS', 'HPGL', 'IW44', 'DJVU', 'MRSID', 'G3'. For a link data type the internal processing functions are not applicable. The program must execute a link on another program to display these data types. There happens exactly the same as if you would have double clicked this image file in the Windows Explorer. The program can display videos with the data type 'AVI', 'MPG', 'MPEG', 'MOV', 'MPE', 'ASF', 'ASX' , 'WMV'.
