I'm starting to build up quite a collection of movies now, and I don't have too much hard drive space so I have many on CDs. I'm also getting to the position where I'm downloading a film only to find I'd already got it and put it on CD.
My question is for those who have a big movie collection - how do you keep track of all your films? Do you design a database and add new films as you download them? Or is there a program that will give you a bit more info about the films such as running length, actors etc. I used to use a program called DVD Profiler to keep track of my DVDs but it's a bit pointless keeping all the extras info, sound format etc when I just have a downloaded copy.
Any ideas?
Currently I am using an Excel Spreadsheet, works rather well. I keep track of movie ratings, titles, release year, file size, number of discs, type of copy and finally Quality. With Excel I was also able to add movie synopsis info to the title field, where when you place your cursor over the cell the synopsis info pops up, rather cool.
