You can use a barcode app, but I recently saw a post from edwin where he said he bought an actual scanner. I have thousands not in my collection here, so I bought a wireless scanner (Tera 5100) that was on sale at the time for $25 shipped. Works great. You can scan all of them into a document, spreadsheet, etc without having to install any special software.
After that, copy and paste 50 at a time into
https://www.lddb.com/bulk.phpThank you and others for the information, I know our situation isn't that much of a big deal I'd just thought if I could just scan the titles and set up a data base... I am guessing we will proably offer them for sale at one point... we are in the Nashville Tennessee area, but it's going to take me some time to get this done but at least I figured I would just start somewhere. I actually have been a user of Ant Movie DB for years and years and have all of our DVD's cataloged through that and it has been a good tool.
I will look for the scanner you mentioned and do a little research... all of our discs go back to the early 70's and all the covers are in good shape, we purchased all of them new at the time and we have kept them in a dry environment in a shelving unit. We have 3 LD players and I have to see which one will work the best because we want to make sure each of the titles work before listing them for sale...
So, saying that thanks so much for the information and hopefully I can find a solution that isn't too costly and easy to use and get this project behind us.
I just found this on Amazon and placed the order,
