RE: Re: Basic questions about "video streaming"

["Phil Harris" <phil@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think it was $39 for the Collectorz software and I lobbed the MLMJB
guy
$50 for his efforts ... I generated a text file listing of all my ISOs to
use as input into the Collectorz software and then had to manually link the
database records one at a time to the ISO images (that is a pain but I only
have to do it once).

Once that's done (and you follow the instructions carefully) then the
export
process for about 750 movies takes about 30 minutes...
