FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you offer a free trial?
+

Yes, we offer a free trial version. It allows you to create as many libraries as you want, but each library is limited to 100 videos. This lets you test the software's full functionality with a limited dataset.

Can I use this if I'm not a tech guru?
+

Absolutely! If you can use a smartphone, you can use our software. We've designed it to be intuitive and user-friendly. No pocket protector required!

Can I still get a refund if I've been using the software for a while?
+

Yes, we offer a full refund if you've used the software for less than 30 days or 10 hours of active runtime, whichever is longer. Just click the Refund button next to the runtime counter from the settings modal


Our software has a built-in runtime counter that only logs active usage. It measures a keypress within every 10-second window to count as active use. This ensures that only your actual working time with the software counts towards the 10-hour limit. We wanted make automatic refunds easy in the case where you purchased the software, then forgot about it for more than 30 days, and then 3 months later you still haven't tried it and want your money back.

How do I start using the software?
+

To get started:

  1. Download and install the software
  2. Name your first video library (e.g., "My Movies")
  3. Select the folder on your computer where your videos are located
  4. Choose where you want to store the library information
  5. Select the size of thumbnails you'd like to extract
  6. Click "Create Library"
How does this work?
+

Our digital media management tool catalogs your video files, creating thumbnails and metadata for easy searching. It works with your local files, so your media stays on your computer.

What happens to my video files?
+
All your videos remain unchanged. Video Clip Library only takes screenshots of your videos so you can preview them at any time. If the videos are located on an external hard drive you will still be able to see them in Video Clip Library whether the hard drive is connected or not. But clicking the video will only open it in your video player if the external hard drive is connected.
What happens when I add, delete, or rename videos?
+
The software automatically watches for changes in your video folder. If you add, delete, or rename a video, the software will update your library to reflect the changes. You can also manually rescan your directory to update your library at any time.
Can I have more than one video library?
+

Yes, you can create as many libraries as you want. This is great for organizing different types of videos (e.g., movies, home videos, work projects) separately.

Can I import more than one folder into a single library?
+

Yes, you can add multiple folders to a single library. Go to settings, then the "Current Library" tab, and use the "Add folder to library" option.

What's the cost to catalog a 10TB drive full of videos?
+

Our software is priced per license, not per amount of data. You can catalog as much as you want for one flat fee. No hidden charges or data limits!

Do you use my video data for training AI models?
+

Absolutely not. Your data stays on your computer. We respect your privacy and have no access to your files.

Can I catalog videos stored on my NAS?
+

Yes! As long as your computer can access the files, our software can catalog them. It works great with network-attached storage.

Will this work with my extensive collection of cat videos?
+

Of course! Whether it's cat videos, family movies, or your secret stash of B-movies, our software handles it all. We don't judge your taste in videos. Our software works with any video files on your computer. We don't check the origin of your files. What you do with it is your business, but please respect copyright laws.

Is this better than just using Windows Search?
+

Is a gourmet burger better than a fast-food one? Our software is specifically designed for media management, offering features like video previews, advanced metadata, and content aware searches that general file systems can't match.

Will this make me finally get around to organizing my digital mess?
+

We can't work miracles, but we can make the process a lot easier and maybe even fun. The rest is up to you and your procrastination skills!

What's your pricing model?
+

We use a model similar to JetBrains. You buy the software once and get 1 year of updates for free. After the first year, if you want to continue receiving updates, you can renew your license for about 60% of the full license price.

How do I upgrade from the free trial to the full version?
+

Upgrading is simple! Just purchase a license and enter the provided license key in the software. There's no need to reinstall anything - your trial version will be instantly upgraded to the unlimited version.

Is this a subscription service?
+

Not exactly. It's a one-time purchase that includes a year of updates. After the first year, you can choose to purchase updates for additional years at a reduced price.

What payment methods do you accept?
+

We process payments through Lemon Squeezy, which accepts all major credit cards and PayPal.

How much does it cost to renew my license after the first year?
+

Renewal costs about 60% of the full license price. This gives you access to another full year of updates and improvements.

What happens if I don't renew after the first year?
+

Your software will continue to work indefinitely, but you won't receive any new updates or features released after your license expires.

Keyboard shortcuts?
+
See the 'shortcuts' tab in the settings menu for the full list of keyboard shortcuts.
Can I sort videos by date?
+

Yes, you can enable date sorting in the settings. Look for the "Search settings" tab and enable "Date Modified" in the sorting options.

Can I change the default thumbnail for a video?
+

Yes, you can either drag and drop a new image onto a video's thumbnail, or select one of the other extracted thumbnails to be the default.

Does the software support playlists?
+
Yes, you can enable a "Play All" feature in the settings. This will create a playlist of all videos currently displayed in your gallery. Editing playlists directly is not supported at this time.
What data about me is collected and tracked?
+

Important to know:

  • Usage data is associated with your user account.
  • We retain collected data indefinitely to analyze long-term trends.
  • We WILL share aggregated, anonymized data insights publicly or with partners.
  • You can OPT OUT of telemetry in the settings, but not refund eligibility tracking.
  • If you need a version of the software that makes zero network calls, please contact us on Discord or email. We will be happy to make you a build.

1. Usage Telemetry

  • We collect aggregated usage data in 3-day windows to help us improve the app and make decisions about feature development.
  • Example: If you use the duration filter 10 times in 3 days, we receive one data point saying "duration filter used 10 times".
  • You can opt out of telemetry in the settings modal under the "Telemetry" tab.
  • For full transparency, you can view the exact JSON payload that will be sent in the next telemetry batch, along with explanations of all possible data points.

2. Feedback and Bug Reports

  • You can submit feedback by clicking on one of the many feedback buttons on every screen of the app.
  • To submit feedback, only a happiness score (1-4) is required.
  • You have the option to include screenshots and system information, but this is entirely voluntary.

3. Refund Eligibility Tracking

  • We track when you pass the refund eligibility threshold (currently 10 hours of active use).
  • This helps us manage our revenue recognition process.

IMPORTANT: We Don't See Your Content

We have no visibility into your actual files, their names, or any metadata you enter into the software. Our software operates on your local machine, and information about your specific content never leaves your computer.

What we DO see:

  • Which features you use and how often
  • If processing jobs succeed or fail
  • Navigation patterns and click sequences
  • Usage frequency and duration

What we DON'T see:

  • File names or content of your media
  • Metadata you've entered about your media
  • The subject matter of your library/collection/catalog
  • Any personally identifying information about the content itself

A Note on Our Approach to Privacy and Analytics:

We believe in complete transparency about data practices, which is why we've detailed everything above. As a small team focused on building great software, we use analytics to understand how our features are actually used so we can make better decisions with our limited resources. We've made analytics opt-out rather than opt-in because our experience shows this provides the most representative data for improving the product for everyone. However, we deeply respect that some users prefer absolutely no network connectivity, which is why we offer a zero-network version upon request. Our goal is to balance practical business needs with respecting user privacy - we never see your actual content, and all analytics are focused solely on improving the features you use most. Your trust matters to us, and we're committed to being upfront about all aspects of how our software works.

Why We Retain Data Indefinitely:

We retain usage data long-term to:

  • Track the growth of our software's adoption over time
  • Create meaningful usage milestones (e.g., '1 million videos processed')
  • Demonstrate feature popularity through actual usage metrics
  • Use aggregated statistics as social proof in our marketing

This approach allows us to showcase our software's impact and reliability while still respecting individual privacy through anonymization. For users with strict privacy requirements, we offer a zero-network version upon request.

We say data is retained indefinitely because once we use aggregated metrics in published materials (like marketing graphs or milestone announcements), we can't realistically delete that information from everywhere it might appear. While your individual actions won't be identifiable, the fact that they contributed to our user statistics becomes part of our permanent public record through various publications and third-party distributions

The reality is that once data is used in published statistics or marketing materials, those materials can be copied, shared, printed, or archived by others beyond the company's control. So while we may anonymize your specific actions, we can't promise to completely delete the fact that those actions occurred once they've been counted in public-facing metrics.
