| | Posted: | | | | That is very, very unlikely. Invelos is a husband-and-wife company that - as far as I can see - needs all its resources for its current products. | | | | Last edited: by dee1959jay |

| | Posted: | | | | The question comes up every once-in-a-while and was answered several times. One of the best answers came from mediadogg Quoting mediadogg Quote:
I think the perspective that you are missing (and you're not the first by any means) is that the real power of DVDPro lies not only in it's cataloging functions. DVDPro consists of a bundle of powerful metaphors tied to GUI tools that make it easy to manage a library of mainly movies in DVD format. But even that is just the tip of the iceberg. The online database, hosted by Invelos, and diligently populated by a community of devoted users, makes registering and maintaining a large repository of DVD media a breeze. Pop in the DVD, or type in a title snippet, or barcode - and BAM! - profile filled out (and updated as improvements are available).
There is nothing else needed for you use DVDPro to track anything, including pencils. Just create a manual profile, and fill it out. But then DVDPro is reduced to not much more than a MS/Access datadase. The reason I am going into this detail, is that I fell into the same "trap." Man, this program is so good, it could track anything. Then I started using it - and discovered that the program is just a part of the story.
I hope this helps you understand some of the other comments - and maybe even a bit of frustration.
Anyway, glad you're lovin' DVDPro! For more info check this thread, or enter "CD Profiler" into the search field. | | | It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?
