Inventory software for DVD's, Audio-books, VHS tapes.
by Eddieem - 9/25/07 1:56 PMI'm looking for software to keep track of my collections of the above types of items and be able to get a print out. I know years ago there were some that you could enter the ISBN number and it would either import into the program giving title, author, and a short description of the story or get the publisher and go to their website and possibly get the info by copy and paste into the form. Naturally I'm looking for something that I won't have to go to each item and type it in myself, otherwise I'd be here until the DVD Format goes out of style at my rate of typing. HOPE THIS IS RIGHT FORUM TO USE AND THANKS FOR ANY HELP. Ed
P.S. :(No or low cost would be ideal.

Inventory software for DVD's, Audio-books, VHS tapes
by ehknapp - 10/6/07 11:17 AM In reply to: Inventory software for DVD's, Audio-books, VHS tapes. by EddieemI had the same problem several years ago, tried half-a-dozen or more programs (both freeware and shareware), and found those produced by FNProgramvare to be the best (for me at least). This is a small company in Norway whose programs (all in English) include BookCAT (for books), CATVids (for DVDs, VHS, Laserdisc, etc.), and CATraxx (for CDs, LPs, and other music formats). They are very powerful, extremely flexible, and customizable, and technical support is outstanding (I have often received a response to a question within hours). Not free, but free to try, and cost for full versions is modest (with discounts for purchasing multiple products). This may be more than you want, or need, but check out their site at fnprg.com, and also their Community Forums.
I should add that of all the programs I have on my computer, I enjoy working with these the most!
Be wary of online databases
by citymars - 10/9/07 8:16 AM In reply to: Inventory software for DVD's, Audio-books, VHS tapes. by EddieemThere was a free site (actually promoted in a New York Times article) called guzzlefish.com. I kept track of all my movies there, as well as video games. I have a huge collection, so I put a lot of time into it. I also helped the site by adding data.
Then the site disappeared. No warnings or apologies. All that data lost.
I know you are looking for software for your own PC, but I thought I'd throw in this cautionary tale nevertheless.
Guzzlefish.com Revisited
by ewramos - 10/9/07 10:15 AM In reply to: Be wary of online databases by citymarsJust for grins I looked this site up on the Internet Archie and saw this;
http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.guzzlefish.com
You might be able to recover some of your 'data' there.
Good Luck

Guzzlefish.com Revisited - thanks
by citymars - 10/26/07 1:08 PM In reply to: Guzzlefish.com Revisited by ewramosThanks, Ed. It never occurred to me before to try a web archive. At the moment I'm not able to get to that site, but I'll try again later.

Tools from Bolide Software
by maxic1 - 3/21/09 2:07 AM In reply to: Inventory software for DVD's, Audio-books, VHS tapes. by EddieemCheck this article - Master Your Audio Book Collection. I think All My Books program is the best for audio books inventory.
As for the DVD Inventory Software, I prefer All My Movies for PC.
All My Movies
by VirginyM - 11/3/09 10:43 PM In reply to: Tools from Bolide Software by maxic1I used All My Movies for a long time, but I got tired of looking for cracks. A few days ago I started to use Movienizer. I think that is a quality software, and besides it's free. Movienizer transferred all films from All My Movies so I didn't need to fill out my movie list once again.
