What's new in this version (1.82.02):
* Categories can now have an apostrophe in them
* I am aware of the camera crashing on some HTC (and the EEE Pad) phones. Working on it as fast as I can, but I do not have an HTC phone to test on.
Description
Scan in the barcodes on all of your media to DiscCat to keep track of what you have to prevent duplicate purchases.
DiscCat is a simple catalog for DVDs, Games, Books, or whatever else you would like to keep track of.
Can store cover images, IMDB links. Has Wishlist & Rental tracking.
There is a feature for attempting to look up DVDs based on the barcode online. I cannot stress enough that this *will* fail on a large proportion of your discs. Please do not download expecting to not have to type anything in, as you will likely be disappointed.
Barcode scanning is all performed by whatever barcode scanning app you have installed. I recommend the app 'Barcode Scanner' by ZXing Team - this is the app that will be installed if you do not have a scanner already. Any issues with scanning barcodes (this includes strange things happening when you press buttons while scanning) are entirely due to whatever barcode scanner you have chosen to install.
CD titles are displayed in the order you typed them in - if you type in the artist followed by the title, that is how it will be displayed - I have no control over this.

Great app. Be nice if you could get a category count as well, and if u could delete the covers.

Solid app. Could use a list tab w/ ability to jump to letters (like contacts). Maybe query Blu-ray.com for info/cover art?

This app works perfect. Just takes a few tries to figure it out. So far finds all my movies. Please add a movie total. Thx!

5 star! Great free app! Love the ability to export the database and track rentals. Adding second lookup site increased hit rate to 90% - thanks! Droid

Could be awesome if the DB was larger. Only recognised one of 30 discs I scanned.
