Seems like you could import via command line? http://wiki.gcstar.org/en/execution |

You can build the database you need locally with something like exiftool or MediaInfo, or even ffmpeg https://stackoverflow.com/a/8191228/374110 . I highly doubt anyone with serious collections is building their database one item at a time. |

The closest thing I can think of is Kodi since it's scanner will retrieve all this information and store it in a straightforward database format. You can choose SQLite or MySQL (of course MySQL is definitely the better choice for larger collections). The downside is the scanner is very slow, especially over a network (and not optimised). The only viewer for this data (at the time being) is Kodi itself. |
