Existing users, 
What exactly is this software?
It catalogues films and lets you add notes. Wow.
There are loads of catalogue tools (notably iView) out there that will do this - even (unstable) iVideo can make a go of this.
It can compress but basically uses QTPro functionality for that. It's no Compression Master though so talk of "Pro" quality is misplaced.
It has a Mosaic; what's that then (I know what it looks like - I simply struggle to know why)?
Then is has all this people, places, etc thingy going on. so does Memory Miner and that has a more elegant solution.
So if you add up iView, Memory Miner and QTPro then iDive is cheaper but I still do not understand what it's really trying to do and more importantly, why?
iDive
Manage video & dv clips, integrate with iMovie and Final Cut Pro.
Version: 1.9.1
I just don't get it.

i got it. - tanemika
In fact this is a great appyou can take all your library on your mac
it is really easy and fast to add keyword to the videos
because of the mosaic showing you what is in the clip even without having to play it.
you can find video from one person in one click and copy footages to imovie or final cut
you can send the result of your search by mail or to a website
it's a good tool for pros or for familly usage
the more you use it the more your database will be rich covering all the subjects you like
ok it could be better but i think it will
you should try seriously for a while, then you'll see how easyly you can find your footage back

I think you got it anyway - it *combines* features and as with many other applications this is often the better way for effective working rather than collecting 599 different Utilities in my Application folder.This "Mosaic" stuff is an unnecessary gimmick, developers should focus on a good catalogue and database programm.
