So, like many people, I like to gather clips of gameplay and organise them. My current system is sorting them into categories, and then subcategories, in the form of file directories. However where this falls apart is when I have a clip that satisfies multiple categories/subcategories; as I don’t want to have any instances of duplicated clips.

I’d be looking for some kind of software/system that can track all of the clips in a database and associate tags to them, possibly even allowing me to ‘checkout’ a selection of clips and remove them from the system to be edited and cut to a final video.

I came to you guys because I’m about 🤏 this close to starting development based on my specifications, but I know this will take an incredibly long amount of time for something that probably wont see the light of day; so I wanted to do a final check to see if there was an existing solution similar to what I described.

(my full specifications are slightly more complex than described above, but broadened here to increase the chance of finding an existing solution.)
