Tagging and searching clips

Just curious if anyone else has a software solution for tagging clips similar to capture one but for video, I have clips that get reused in certain show or elements that I like that I want to put on my server but I want a piece of software that I can say find shots with road in them or smoke towards camera etc, anyone have a simple solution. I think f track or shot grid are a bit overkill for this, keep in mind this is just for my at home solution that said I have about 50 tb of stuff to search.

Then Kyno?

that looks more promising , just less file support but it could have potential for the future, so far as I read it only supports very limited QT encodes and no image sequence support yet but its on their radar. The price sounds about right.

For Linux there’s “Tag My Shit Up” a command line utility: Home · oniony/TMSU Wiki · GitHub

I have done this with Lightroom and Digikam. I personally use Digikam, as is free and Linux native. I run a Digikam database out from a NAS with clients on Mac and Linux. I can also run shell scripts hooked with Python to send clips to Resolve and Daylight. I am pretty sure the same can be done with Flame.
