| | Posted: | | | | With the Scan Barcode feature, we have the makings of an inventory system here. I added a user named Inventory, scanned some UPCs and then indicated that "Inventory" had watched that DVD. It would be cool if we had a dedicated inventory system whereby we could use the scan barcode feature, automatically record the inventory and instantly (or more easily) return to the scan barcode feature.  | | | ...James

| | Posted: | | | | Been loving the new iOS version on my 3GS. Have been thinking about the idea of how awesome it would be to have an inventory feature using the bar code scanning. Figured I'd sift through the forum and see if anyone else had offered up the suggestion, and sure enough...
Seriously, this would be such an awesome feature. I just ran across a disc the other day that turned out to not be in the database. Would be great to hunt out the other various discs that have eluded being cataloged. Ditto for ones that are in the DB but missing from the collection (forgot to mark as loaned, etc).
#1 on my wanted feature list. |

#1 on my wanted feature list. Not sure what you mean by "an inventory feature using barcode scanning", but with the current version, provided you install another free app (pic2shop), you can scan barcodes. If it's already in your collection, DVDP app will take you to that profile and when it's not, ask if you wish to add it and to which collection category. | | | Blu-ray collection

| | Posted: | | | | What I'd love to see is a way to do it in bulk. Perhaps set it into an inventory operating mode and just go title by title, somehow flagging or tagging titles as you go (or something like that). When you're dealing with thousands of entries, doing it on a one-by-one pull-up-the-record-as-you-go basis is untenable. A year or so after I started using DVD Profiler (quite some time ago), I did the process once, but just used report printouts to cross items off the list.
I'd love to be able to just bar code scan through stacks of discs and just have it need my attention when it scans something that's NOT in the DB. For everything else, it just flags titles as you go, and when you're done can kick out a report of anything that's in the DB that wasn't scanned during the process ("missing" items).
That's my ideal scenario anyway. |
