@Contro: I cross-posted the above in case you might not have seen it. I would stress some salient points following on from that:this seems and important and deeply discussion but I don't have a clear answer.
- Redundancy:
...It just brought home to me the fact that the name of the game is not "what to do" but "what not to do."
So the main problem is the quality of the judgement involved in prioritising. It's all too well to capture, list and order all tasks. But the main issue is to decide what to do now, today, by making very painful decisions about what not to do, temporarily, and most likely permanently. ...

"This scheme disregards the logical 4th permutation: Urgent, but Not Important as it is a nonsense."
However, note the idea that:"Unimportant/Urgent quadrant are delegated[12] e.g. interruptions, meetings, activities.[11]" - Wikipedia - Time management.- Driving force:
The user is the driving force. The ToDo list is a tool. Don't let the tool become the master.Elimination of non-priorities(Interestingly, one could have observed this principle in operation in computer systems - e.g., when testing some of the early IBM DB2 transaction-queuing algorithms - under some load circumstances the queue could never be completed because the overly-sophisticated algorithm ended up in a bind where it was perpetually re-arranging the priorities. So it just "hung".)
Time management also covers how to eliminate tasks that do not provide value to the individual or organization.
According to Sandberg,[26] task lists "aren't the key to productivity [that] they're cracked up to be". He reports an estimated "30% of listers spend more time managing their lists than [they do] completing what's on them".
Hendrickson asserts[27] that rigid adherence to task lists can create a "tyranny of the to-do list" that forces one to "waste time on unimportant activities". - Wikipedia - Time management.
Some relevant software: (essentially, most freeform databases or wikis would probably do).
- Lotus Agenda (DOS-based, highly-sophisticated freeform text database). Freeware (Released into the public domain by IBM).
- CHS (Clipboard Help and Spell) - a sophisticated Clipboard Manager, using a database. Donationware.
- InfoSelect - PIM/Freeform Database (a fairly sophisticated and flexible PIM). Paid software.
- InfoBase - PIM/Freeform Database (a text-based PIM, similar to the original InfoSelect.) Freeware.
- InfoQube - PIM/Freeform Database (a fairly sophisticated and flexible PIM; also includes Gantt-type planning, by default.) Paid software.

The Revo Uninstaller software (v2.0) can easily show you the date of applications being installed and even sort the list applications accordingly. It also can export this list in html and txt format.Understood Shades-Shades (July 05, 2017, 08:12 PM)
Also, MS Word has special options for inserting a watermark in your document and printed output: Insert a watermark in WordUnderstood. Thanks Ath
Similar features exist in MS Excel and MS Powerpoint.-Ath (July 05, 2017, 01:02 AM)
In Screenshot Captor, watermarks are just image files, so just put your custom image files in the user watermarks folder (you can get there from the SpecialFx2->Watermarks->Explore menu item), and they will be available from that menu.Understood.
You can change watermarking options from the Special Effect Options tab.-mouser (July 04, 2017, 06:10 PM)
ps. If you already use Screenshot Captor, it has a watermark function.Running to try !!!!!!!-mouser (July 04, 2017, 03:51 PM)
Picasa has always had this. It's rather well-implemented too.

Sorry these files are audio files for me. I try with kmplayer and vlc . Only audio.-Contro (June 16, 2017, 04:22 PM)
Video...audio... Either way, it's not an image file so ExifToolGui isn't going to work for this purpose. Are you certain that 3ga files have any sort of metadata in them?-skwire (June 16, 2017, 04:25 PM)
exiftoolgui is without development. I have download anyway, but don't see the extension 3ga ....-Contro (June 16, 2017, 04:08 PM)
Again, a 3ga is a movie file. I think ExifToolGui only works with image file types.-skwire (June 16, 2017, 04:10 PM)
