ED.B  I noticed that the app saves the images in the ".tiff" format. These images tend to take up quite a bit of space. Wouldn't it be better if they were saved as ".jpg".

Thanks for a great app! Keep up the great work!  (Version 1.2.9e)

ED.B  I didn't have any the issues that you listed. I run the Mac Mini with 512 mb ram. I don't have a scanner or iSight so I hand keyed in my 392 title collection. On occassion I encountered a no result for a UPC code but a simple title search located the movie. I opted not to use a secondary lookup, located at the bottom of the search screen, and received 98% of my finds from Amazon. The only real issue I had was that the export to iPod produced a file that weighed in at 1.2 gig.

Other than that...this app worked wonderfully.  (Version 1.2.9)

WDATKINSON  I've been looking for a good piece of software to catalog my DVD collection since starting my migration to Mac about a year ago. I'd tried and earlier version of this software and didn't care for it.

After seeing an updated version, I thought I'd give it another shot, but unfortunately I still enountered issues while trying to enter in my 200+ DVD collection:

1). When using the multi-UPC entry, and an actual bar-code scanner (the iSight scan option has NEVER worked for me on two different iSight equipped Macs) the initial entry finds the correct movie. As an example, the first season boxed set of Sopranos. Seeing that, I continue on and enter in another row of movies from my rack. Then the software wants to do additional lookups where it matched the correct movie/upc with an incorrect match. I have seven or eight boxed sets of different titles. Initially the software recognized them, but then as I continue through the process only one title out of maybe 10-15 actually makes it into my library.

2). When entering multiple UPCs there is no option to work with the list being going through the entire add process. So if you see a problem, you can do nothing about it until you finish the process.

3). When trying to use the iSight camera, memory growth brought my MacBook with 1GB of memory to its knees. Within a few minutes I was using 1+Gb of virtual memory and 800+ meg of real memory. I killed the program and restarted and the minute I activated the iSight memory usage goes through the room. But as I said, I've never gotten the iSight option to work anyway.

I would seriously register this product in a minute if it would do what I need to do.   (Version 1.2.9)
