This release doesn’t do much: you can add your library of video files, and it will let you do a full-text search on the filename.  You can double-click an item in the list to launch the video with ‘gnome-open’ (which should honour user settings for preferred applications).

Feel free to download it, mess around with it, and send me any feedback you have.  I have plenty of future plans for it, including “watch folders”, tagging, metadata, fetching information from IMDB, and being able to search on all of this information.  (Think queries like “actor:’johnny depp’ tag:crime”.)
