GCStar

GCStar - Personal Collections Manager

Platforms : Windows - Mac OS X - Linux

As the name sugests, it allows you to manage several items in your collection. You type in a query , and it connects to several popular sites (i.e IMDB, Amazon etc..) to retrieve all trivial data.

Currently, it comes with following templates :

• Movie collection
• Music collection
• Video Games collection
• Board Games collection
• Wines collection
• Books collection
• Comics collection
• Numismatic collection
• TV Shows collection

You can manage almost everything with this wonderful piece of software.

GCStar also supports tagging, filtering and event logging (i.e. Lendings)

As most OpenSource Titles, it doesn't use proprietary file formats, it stores it's databases in an XML like format.

Importing and exporting is made very easy, as it supports a lot of import/export formats (DVDProfiler, SQL, HTML, CSV etc..) I use the HTML Export module (which also comes with a few customizable templates) to publish my collection on this site. (Collection -> Video Games)

I've been using this excellent piece of Software for quite a time, and I can only recommend it !
