Guest DeanB Posted September 18, 2007 Posted September 18, 2007 I am backing up images (1 per second) from a security camera, to a directory on a PC. However, after a couple of days I am having a hard time accessing such large numbers of files - its not the amount of data its the number of files that is the problem. Anyway, I'm looking for some software (not necessarily free) that can handle such large file counts and convert them into something like an AVI or MPEG, or at least let me scan through them easily. Any recommendations appreciated. Dean

I am looking for specific recommendations on software that can handle a million photos in one windows directory.

Try looking in Google Groups for a photo newsgroup. The issue isn't really a problem or feature of Windows XP.
