Default What DVD/video cataloguing software?

I've got a bit of time on my hands and I'm keen to start to set up a catalogue for my hundreds of VHS videos and DVD's. What PC (Win XP) software would Britmoviers recommend? Not just freeware, I'm willing to pay a reasonable amount if the software is good enough.

I suspect this topic has been covered before, but maybe there are some new possibilities?

Many thanks
Rob

Hi Rob,

I highly recommend Movie Collector. I have been using it for ages now and have found it to be excellent.

DVD Database software, catalog your DVDs & Blu-Ray discs

Regards,
Alex

I use Griffith (Griffith - Home). Very easy to use and fairly comprehensive.
Open the link, go to 'Download' and scroll down to 'Microsoft Windows' and click the link. Downloading can take a while if the server is busy. Its free btw.

Invelos Software's DVD Profiler - DVD Collection Software for the DVD and Blu-ray Enthusiast is excellent, and I find the on-line database facility which is included very handy too.

I had no idea there were so many choices! I use Ant Movie Catalogue, and then a small database to track lends and trades.
