• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

I'm a wrestling coach and have a computer full of 5 minute-long videos of my athlete's matches and would like to start cataloguing them so that I can type in a keyword and all videos associated would be called up.

Does anyone have recommendations for a program like this?

you could use the colour labels from finder, assign a catagory to each colour so orange for competition, blue for technique etc then all you do is right click on the file and click on a colour. You can then search for all "blue" files from finder.

Good luck.

iTunes will do what you're looking for.
Use Genre for Wrestling Technique 1, Wrest. Tech 2, etc.
Album Name for Joe vs Sam, Bob vs Tom, etc.

There are a couple of apps that may or may not give you more control.
Delicious Library or DVDPedia. Both designed to keep DVD libraries catalogued, but may work for your needs. They both have free trials. Both will allow you to enter much more info that can readily be seen than doing a Get info in iTunes.
