MONTPELLIER, FRANCE: 4th of May 2006: Aquafadas announces the release of iDive 1.7 , an update of its award-winning digital video catalog for Mac OSX.

The latest version of iDive is available today from their web site.
It introduces a number of improvements, like:
- the possibility to print contact sheets with your clips. A number of options can help you customize the output, and a real-time preview is shown on screen.
- the possibility to print tape/CD/DVD covers from your catalog data.
- the possibility to reconnect media files if they have been moved.
- other small improvements. Make sure you read the full release notes that come with the program.
- and two great new compositions for Mosaic:
• Slideshow#1 by Aquafadas allows you to view the Pictures of your videos as a simple no-fuss fullscreen slideshow
• Museum by Zuga Futurismo (see the recent interview of Zuga published by Aquafadas) offers the user a seemless promenade inside a museum with their videos on display .

The spotlight plug-in has been updated too. We would recommend users to reinstall it to ensure that it works properly, especially on Mac Intel.

About iDive
iDive offers amateur and semi-professional users a robust on-screen digital video shoebox to store clips and still images. The application includes truly innovative tools that make navigation both easy and fast, regardless of the number of clips being stored. Power previewing, customizable views, "drag & drop" attribute tagging and a timeline display turn any assortment of disorganised tapes into an instantly accessible catalog of digital video that can be enjoyed at any time.
iDive l.5 will ship today with "Mosaic," a powerful new award-winning feature that allows users to create and share motion graphics from digital video footage in a matter of minutes.
Designed to sit alongside DV editing applications, iDive promises to eliminate the frustration and time-wasting in locating and viewing clips hidden amongst hours of footage, by simplifying visualisation, tagging, storage, organisation and retrieval of digital video clips and photos.
