| Posted: | | | | Since I collect a few hundred DVD's I was thinking that it would be useful to use a "Bar code reader" which can be purchased on amazon.com. This would help both the speed and the accuracy. Does anyone know if a "bar code reader" works with the 3.1 version of DVD PROFILER ? Any tips on this ? Thanks for your help. |

| Posted: | | | | I've been using a barcode reader for about 7 years with dvdprofiler. Started with a cuecat (cos it was free) and now have a decent one which is usb and is much better at scanning than the cuecat. | | | Home of the phpDVDProfiler forums |

Same here, after fighting with a 'free' cuecat for years I upgraded to an ADESSO Nuscan 1000U that I found as a return for $45. Just plugged it in and never looked back. Using TLEVELs plug-in I did a full inventory of my collection in about four hours (~2000 profiles at the time). pdf | | | Paul Francis San Juan Capistrano, CA, USA |

| Posted: | | | | I've been using a cue cat for about three years... I got it of e-bay for about 4 bucks total including shipping...
I like the barcoder scanner as I tend to buy DVDs in spurts like 3-5 or more at a time... | | | If Guns Kill People, Then I can Blame My Keyboard for misspelled Words. |
