Media Cataloging Software? · Slashdot Mirror

Posted by Cliff on Thursday June 21, 2007 @11:01AM from the where-are-all-my-files dept.

Rich0 asks: "I have a growing pile of CDs/DVDs holding hundreds of GB of files. I would like a linux-compatible software solution to cataloging and searching these disks. Lots of solutions exist for music/video, but not so many for files. The software should have the ability to easily scan disks: pop in disc; software reads disc; software prompts for a name (with something sensible defaulted); software ejects disc; software tells me what if any label to write/apply to the disc; and software is ready for the next disc. I've seen one or two packages out there but they usually require lots of manual disk labelling, or their search capabilities are limited. Windows-only software won't be of much use to me. What are others using to manage their media collections?"

There. Corrected typo in story.

Now this question is applicable to me. I'll read the rest of the replies and mentally substitute "Rock" and "Country and Western" for "Straight" and "Water Games" etc.
