Starting with version 2.00, the program implements the Description API, a special programming interface that allows developing plugins separately from the rest of the program. Plugins handle advanced tasks in the process of scanning a media, such as extracting and providing the program with descriptions or thumbnails that will be stored in a catalog. Anybody with sufficient programming skills to develop a regular DLL library, in any programming language, can extend WhereIsIt's description and thumbnails importing capabilities by providing the program with a new plugin. If you have a description or thumbnail source that WhereIsIt can not use at this time, for example, a text file in a non-supported format, you can write your own plugin that will process such files and allow WhereIsIt to automatically import descriptions from that source.

	Main Description Plugins (DescPlugin.zip, 251 kB), 36 plugins	Version: 4.27 August 27th 2014
The "Main Description Plugins" module is the one that takes care of importing most of supported description sources in WhereIsIt. This module is always included in the downloadable program package, however module available here may be newer and allows you to update description support without having to download the entire program.
This plugins module is already included and installed with the program package. You may only need to download it if the version published here is newer than the one you already have.

	Graphics Plugins (DescGraphics.zip, 1130 kB), 47 plugins	Version: 5.81 October 28th 2015
"Graphics Plugins" is a supplemental plugins module for importing details about most often used graphic file formats in use today. All description plugins provide details such as width, height, and color depth of the picture, and most of them (GIF, JPG, TIFF, PSD, and PNG) can extract more detailed information, if available, as well - for example, digital camera information (EXIF), or IPTC-NAA description fields, embedded in the image file. Thumbnails plugins are in charge of importing actual images from graphic files and allow WhereIsIt to store their thumbnail versions in catalog. Their secondary task is also to provide support for the internal file viewer, for viewing images in their full size from the media.
This plugins module is already included and installed with the program package. You may only need to download it if the version published here is newer than the one you already have.

	CDDA Plugins (CDDAPlugin.zip, 112 kB), 3 plugins	Version: 1.28 January 25th 2010
This module handles importing details about audio CD disks. Three related plugins are currently available, each handling a different possible source of descriptions. All plugins are capable of setting CD's name and track file's alias names to title/ author details, as well as importing textual information such as play time and additional details as descriptions.
This plugins module is already included and installed with the program package. You may only need to download it if the version published here is newer than the one you already have.

	Digital Camera Raw Files Thumbnails Plugin (DcrawPlugin.zip, 225 kB), 1 plugin	Version: 1.71 July 11th 2014
A single plugin in this module is a wrapper around Dave Coffin's dcraw.c project, capable of decoding raw photos from many different types of digital camera (599 digital cameras are currently supported).
This plugins module is already included and installed with the program package. You may only need to download it if the version published here is newer than the one you already have.

	AutoCAD Plugin (AcadPlugin.zip, 56 kB), 1 plugin	Version: 1.10 July 13th 2010
The AutoCAD plugin can extract and import embedded thumbnails in AutoCAD's .DWG files, where available. Please note that not all DWG files include thumbnails, and only DWG files created with AutoCAD R13 and newer support thumbnails in the first place. Older DWG files will not cause problems, however they are of no use to this plugin. Full Delphi source code is included.

	Video Files Thumbnails Plugin (VideoThumbPlugin.zip, 52 kB, unsupported), 1 plugin	Version: 0.26 September 1st 2012
This module contains a simple plugin capable of automatically importing user-defined frames from video files as thumbnails. Plugin uses DirectX functionality to get basically all of the job done, pretty much the same way as Windows Explorer does when generating thumbnails. Stability and functionality of the plugin depends heavily on installed system components, especially available video codecs and DirectX drivers. Note that video files are likely to be encountered that will be causing problems, and may consequently cause scanning to fail or take a long time. Because of such issues, this plugin is not officially a part of WhereIsIt and is not supported in any way. Use on your own responsibility!

	Adobe Acrobat PDF Thumbnails Plugin (PDFThumbnailPlugin.zip, 32 kB, unsupported), 1 plugin	Version: 0.10 December 4th 2004
The Adobe Acrobat PDF Thumbnails plugin creates and extracts a thumbnail of the first available page in a given PDF document. The plugin simply calls out Adobe Acrobat through its COM interface for the task. As plugin heavily relies on installed third-party software, it is not officially a part of WhereIsIt and is not supported in any way. Use on your own responsibility! Full Delphi source code is included.

	Generic Text File Plugin (GenTextPlugin.zip, 75 kB, unsupported), 2 plugins	Version: 2.04 January 25th 2010
This module includes two plugins, capable of automatically importing user- defined text files as descriptions for either parent items (folders), or files themselves. This feature was in high demand among WhereIsIt users, however it is likely to produce much larger catalog files with importing more or less irrelevant text. Because of that, this plugin is not officially a part of WhereIsIt and is not supported in any way. Use on your own responsibility!

Plugins below are third-party plugins, developed by other authors. While no known problems exist, these plugins are not supported nor tested, use on your own risk. Note that a bad plugin can cause problems during scanning, and can cause scanning to fail. For any questions or comments about there plugins, please contact their authors directly.
