Griffith Multi-Plattform Movie Collection Manager

Keeping an overview of a media collection can be quite hard depending on the amount of media that you own. Griffith provides a comfortable solution for movie collectors. Adding movies to the movie collection manager is a breeze because it can pull data from dozens of Internet movie databases like IMDB or OFDb including several of their local editions.

The best case is to enter (part of) a movie title and click on the button to search one of the databases. Hits are then displayed in a menu and the user can pick the movie that he owns from the list. All relevant information are then filled automatically. And this can be quite a lot of information including all technical details, cast, plot and rating.

This would take lots of work to fill out manually. Each movie that gets added by the user is shown in the main list which can be sorted and filtered by a lot of parameters.

One interesting feature of Griffith is the poster fetcher. It is possible to pull movie posters from Internet websites and save them as well. Besides that links to trailers and movie websites are added automatically if those information are available. There is unfortunately no way to download the movie trailers as well to the local computer.

Griffith offers a “loan-system” as well which helps keeping track of movies that have been loaned. Another interesting feature is the export function. The movie list can be exported in various formats like pdf and html.

As mentioned earlier Griffith is a multi-plattform software currently running on Linux and Windows. If you are looking for a movie manager you might want to check it out, it runs fast and solid.
