A new version of IView for both the MAC and for Windows machines is available. iView MediaPro 3.1 is an upgrade of the 'cross-platform digital asset management application'.
There appear to be just two major changes -
1 - Notepad Tool - this allows communication between a MediaPro user and his/her client. The client simply drags and drops selected catalog items onto the Notepad palette, adds comments and then e-mails the Notepad file. This Notepad file imports easily into the creative professional's original catalog where he or she can view the client's feedback and execute the appropriate actions.
2 - Improved Catalog Reader - this is a utility that allows MediaPro users to distribute and share iView catalogs with anyone using a Windows or Macintosh machine. They have added 'table light, that allows users to view up to 6 imgaes on screen and mark the pictures with comments and rating; a way to aid the image selection process.
A handful of minor changes - Enhanced slide show support for more than 32,000 items, Import/export of color label metadata in XML files and toolbar text searches are now asynchronous - search results are displayed as they are found.
This upgrade is free for existing users. A new copy would set you back £129.








1. This update is free for registered users of MediaPro 3.x. This update works best with the latest version of QuickTime (7.1) from Apple, which is strongly recommended to both Windows and Macintosh users.
