Workshop: Keep tabs on your DVD library

Readers with large DVD libraries are likely to have come up with various ways to organise them and keep track of any ‘loaners’ - probably with varying degrees of success.

In this Workshop we’ll look at Griffith (named after the renowned American film director DW Griffith), a free program that can take the legwork out of managing a DVD library.

Griffith is designed to organise titles by importing the information - and posters - that are freely available from websites such as the Internet Movie Database (IMDB). It also helps to keep track of those titles loaned to friends and family and which in the past may have had a nasty habit of disappearing.

Here's how to install and use Griffith.
