I have found programs for DVD Collectors. But all of programs don't have connect to IMDB.com database update. For example, When I type "Just Married" once it found database from IMDB.com will automatically fill up all details information. That save my time. I hate to put all details information on DVD collect since I have almost 2,100 dvds. It take forever to fill up this. Do you know any program that can do the job for me?
DVD Collectors or Library connect IMDB

Wouldn't it be cool if DVD makers would start including a data file on the DVDs themselves that held all that data? Then you could just pop the disc into your DVD-ROM drive and import it into your database.
I already did. Its still lots work to do drag and drop. I rather type title in blank box "The Road Warrior" then click search connect to whatever it have all information about this movie such as IMDB.com once you get correct info and highlight this and will update everything to your database program that save your time. Than search other website. I want it on program.

I was actually just imagining a different way of accomplishing the same thing.
I was thinking that it would great if each movie DVD included a file which provides ALL the information you would need - **WITHOUT** having to connect to imdb or any other web site.
DVDs have such a large storage capacity that most of them could easily include a file listing the cast, crew, director, release date, a JPG movie poster, year of release, running time, genre keywords, etc.
If all of that information was already **on the disc itself** then you would not even need an internet connection to build your database.
Just dreaming.
