Mezzmo lets you add your collection of home movies and stream them to your devices and web browsers. You can organize your home movies how you like - for example, a 1:1 representation of your folders, or organized by attributes such as keywords, year, date, etc.
All popular video formats are supported. Formats that are not compatible with your devices or web browsers are automatically transcoded.
Mezzmo can detect if a video file is a home movie and pick up the date timestamp for your home movie video files if you follow Mezzmo's supported file naming styles. See Supported file name styles.
Mezzmo collects home movie metadata and artwork from several sources:
You can control where Mezzmo collects metadata using the Metadata Retrieval Settings dialog.
Mezzmo Windows displays and lets you edit all the metadata and artwork in the Properties dialog.
Mezzmo server delivers text metadata to your devices and web browsers. Mezzmo Android displays all text metadata and artwork. Web browsers also displays all text metadata and artwork. Most DLNA devices may only display the title and description of a video.
When you install Mezzmo, it installs a default set of playlists - including the following that can help you browse your home movie collection:
These playlists can help you browse your collection of home movies. You can edit, change, move or delete these playlists as you wish.
You can easily extend the number of playlists for your home movies by creating your own smart playlists and active playlists in your Mezzmo library.
Tip: When a video is detected to be a home movie, then the Category attribute for the video is set to Home movie. You can use this Category value when creating smart playlists and active playlists.
