Hello,
while browsing the net I read about a barcode plug in for DVD Profiler that allows you to scan the barcodes instead of typing in the EAN.
Does somebody know where I can get this plug in?
Thank you!

Be advised that unless you are a premium member, the new version is limited in functionality. There is a 50 title limit for the online collection if your collection is over 50 titles, you won't be able to upload your collection. There are other features limited as well.

Is the barcode-scan-feature not available either?

Not sure. You can still download the lastest version and try it. It installs in a different directory. I'm running the latest version and I still have version 2.5 installed on my machine.

I downloaded and installed it....and there is no such feature. I thought it might be there but not "clickable" in the unregistered version, but it's not there at all....or where exactly do I find it? Still only the EAN field to type in...
So if you know where that former plugin is and where I can load it...I would be really grateful.

I told you...a plugin isn't used with the new version. Barcode scanner compatibility is built in now. Just swipe the barcode of a DVD in the Add DVD by UPC screen and it's automatically entered.

Well, the thing is that I am not using an actual barcode scanner but my webcam. There's another program (I think MyDVD?) that uses your webcam as a barcode scanner. Is this possible with DVD Profiler?

Don't you think you should have mentioned that small detail from the get go?

Someone was looking at developing a possible plugin for using webcams as barcode scanners. Try contacting someone in this thread to see if any progress was made.
