VVV (Virtual Volumes View) is a cross-platform for cataloging the contents of removable volumes (CD, DVD, etc.), allowing for off-line searching.

You can arrange folders and files in a single, virtual file system permitting each folder to contain files from many disks. This fact allows you to organize your data in a logical way. VVV is also capable of storing metadata information from audio files: author, title, album, etc., with the majority of formats being supported.

VVV is designed to be fast, even when working with extensive catalogs. The data is stored in a relational database designed to handle millions of rows, making the retrieval of your information as fast as possible.

VVV can show the content of your disks in three different views:

The first is the physical view, click here for a Windows screenshot. This view shows the content of each disk; you can navigate in the folders structure and see the files contained in each folder.

The second is the virtual view, click here for a Linux screenshot. In this view, everything is organized as a single virtual file system. You can create folders, and you can assign physical volumes or folders to each virtual folder. You can assign the same file to more than one virtual folder, and each virtual folder can contain files that are stored in different disks. This view is a powerful tool that will let you logically organize your data: it will save you a lot of searches.

The third is the search view, click here for a Windows screenshot. In this view, you can search the catalog looking for files that meet your specification.

VVV does not change your operating system in any way. Everything is contained in the installation folder, so you can be sure that it will not cause problems to other applications or to the operating system itself.
