Looking for a nice visual DVD library that pulls information about the movies we have online and categorizes everything nicely.

***must be able to sync the data/library across multiple computers. everything i've found doesn't seem to have an easy way of doing that.

any recommendations?

I personally use Plex. It's pretty much everything you're working for.

just checked it out but it seems that this is perfect for a digital library--we have a huge physical DVD library in the office that we're trying to maintain a central database for that's nice and visual and can be accessed and edited by everyone's computers.

would plex do that?
 
Sadly, I don't think so.

There's one, I want to say there was even a blog post here about it, but I'm blanking on the name. One of the bonuses of it and what made it seem like something useful is it could use the FaceTime camera to read UPCs and enter info with that.

Let me look around and see if I can find it again.


Edit: I believe it was this http://www.collectorz.com/movie/dvd_database.php

I'm not sure if it handles across computers, or can work from a central DB, something you could email them about.
