Suggestions for a Movie Management software

Published on February 9, 2009 By CharlesCS In Personal Computing

OK, So I have this large collections of movies on my external hard drives. Movies I rip from my collection of DVDs (and some I haven't). I don't mind the less-than-DVD quality since I am watching them on a 17 inch laptop most of the time.

What I would like is some kind of Movie Management software, kinda like iTunes, where I can link movie covers to the videos and search by image of movie cover, category, artist or title, sorta like what you see on netflix.com or blockbuster.com. If anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate it. Free if possible, pay version not too expensive please.

Thank you.

I would think that the folks that have made programs to do that kind of thing for Music CD's more than likely make a version for Movie DVD's. I don't use either type of programs. Good luck in finding one.

I have yet to find something like I discribe, I mean iTunes is not too bad but sometimes looking at the image of the cover makes the decision a lot easier than reading every title.
