Hi folks,

after switching more and more to digital media I needed (wanted) to find software that would make it easy to use digital files like physical media. While you can easily put a piece of paper as a physical bookmark into a paper book, it's not that easy with formats like PDF, MP3, AVI, etc. Finally, I found these (all are freeware/donationware) for personal use:

sound files:
1by1: http://mpesch3.de1.cc/ (Plugin pack: http://mpex.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=18563)
Trout: https://www.donationcoder.com/forum/index.php?topic=16157.0

PDF files:
Foxit Reader: http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/reader/ (you need to enable an option)

Now I'm searching something for video files. Is there a solution out there? Either 'automatic bookmarking' or a somewhat manual solution? There MUST be something better than having to write down where you stopped...

Oh, and of course the solution should not modify the files themselves.

The arcticle has some interesting facts beyond the catchy title, I liked it.
