FastMediaSorter LITE is a Windows Forms application for quickly sorting, viewing, and managing image and video files. It supports a wide range of media formats and provides features such as:
- Fast navigation through large folders of images and videos
- Slideshow and random file viewing modes
- Recent files and folders tracking
- File operations: move, copy, rename, and delete
- Image panel for quick visual navigation
- Automatic EXIF orientation correction for photos from phones and cameras
- High-quality (bicubic) scaling for sharp downscaling of large images
- Optional on-image overlay with the file name and position (handy in full-screen)
- Configurable slideshow interval
- Register the app as the default image viewer and/or video player (per-user, no admin needed)
- OCR + on-image translation overlay (local Ollama / LibreTranslate)
- Customizable keyboard shortcuts for efficient workflow
- Multi-language support (English/Russian; first run follows the Windows display language)
- Broad video format support: common H.264/MP4 plays in-window, and anything the built-in player can't decode (AVI, ZMBV, VP9, MKV, WMV, ..) automatically falls back to a bundled LibVLC engine - no external codecs or players required

winget install --id SerZhyAle.FastMediaSorterThe winget package uses the Inno Setup installer in silent per-user mode, so it does not show dialogs during installation.

The interactive setup can optionally register FastMediaSorter LITE for common image formats. On Windows 10/11, the system may still ask you to confirm the choice once in Default Apps.
Both GitHub release assets are offline-ready: they already include VLC runtimes and OCR language packs, so no first-run download is needed for media playback or OCR recognition.
Note: machine translation still depends on the provider you configure. For example, Ollama requires a separate local install/model, while cloud providers need network access.
For EPUB, PDF, FB2, MOBI, TXT, Markdown, and HTML document conversion, use the companion project doc-html-translate:
