user14035: I use Lightroom's library system to organize my photos using tags and categories. Now I want to have the same functionality for video footage, especially for extracting and organizing the interesting sections of a clip.
Is there something like that, maybe even as an addon for lightroom?
Cheers,
fabs

user13978: I think the keywords your looking for is "media asset management" or "video asset management". Apart from the numerous commercial softwares around, this list of open source alternatives might give you a good overview.
