Don't know if this has been asked allready, but is there a catalog browser available ?

I would love to browse this catalog on an old machine, with Windows 95, without having to install the program itself. And exporting the list to html isnt an option, because on that slow machine i cant open that html (>7mb) without crashing the box.

The main problem is the pictures, I guess.
If it is a big ".amc" file it will load the whole file in memory.
If pictures are external files (e.g. with a .xml file) it may be possible to use it directly with the program.

Its a rather big file, 50mb, and a rather very old pc

Thats why i was trying to create this html script, http://users.belgacom.net/joly/movieslist.html , but it doesnt seem to work very well. In FF i can use my arrow keys on the keybaord, but it is always trailing 1 movie behind, in IE it doesnt work at all when i use my arrow keys, and there is only IE on the old pc, and no way of installing FF.

Exporting it to one big html isnt an option either, because it also makes the box crash.

You can try with Kmeleon, which is much lighter than Firefox but uses the same engine.
Check the "template2full" & "template2indiv" files, or "template3.zip", that allow to produce one HTML file per movie, so the pages keep a small size.
