Best way to catalog your Blu-ray/DVD collection - Blu-ray Forum

JamesKurtovich · 12-19-2008, 04:35 PM

Since registering here and becoming once again acquainted with the DVD/HD scene.. I've noticed people have certain websites that catalog their currently owned/ordered/wishlist. What's the best site that does this? I am currently using this site for my Blu collection, but am unable to do it with my DVD's..

- Needs to be able to distinct the Blu-ray from DVD
- Have specs on the certain release owned/ordered/wanted
- Fairly decent looking layout

Any ideas? Thanks guys.

I use www.dvdaf.com (dvdaficionado) for both standard DVD's and Blu ray. There was another great site, can't remember the name, that was shut down recently. Apparently, lots of fans like that one.

Here are my DVD and Blu Ray Discs Collection...

DVDaficionado also has resources that let you list imported DVD's from major countries like Canada, U.K. and Australia as well,

I've used this program in the past:

Coming from the Mac side, you can scan in the barcode using your iSight and the information and cover graphic is instantly inserted into your library. Very convenient when you have a library of 1000+ titles. Well worth the purchase!

I use Movie collector (not online, but a fantastic piece of software)

Also, it allows you to "loan" your movies, set reminders to ask for it back, and is highly customizable. Highly recommended!

DVD Profiler gets my vote as well. It's a nice combination of an offline program that provides online access as well (for listings). It's very customizable also. For example, recently I decided to create tags for best PQ, best AQ, best score, etc. so I wouldn't have to always try to remember my favorites when people ask. You can easily do this in DVD Profiler so then with the click of a button, it'll list the items that match your custom tag. I've also created one for imports and broken it down further by country, etc. Anyway, lots of nice features in the program.

I use DVDPedia, which is like itunes for your movies. It has a direct link with Amazon to look up your movies and imports the cover art as well. Great program

What's with the thread-crapping?

I like DVD Profiler. Very easy to upload my movies as I add to my collection.

DVD profiler is nice, but unfortunately very sluggish. I would recommend either Movie collector or DVD profiler which are both topnotch. HOwever I stick with Movie Collector to it being much faster (and better coded I might add)

+1 DVDPedia is well worth the license fee.
