DVDIndex is a CD/DVD management tool featuring encryption support for archiving and organizing your CD/DVD collection.
If you're looking for a free software program to help you manage your collection of CDs and DVDs, dvdindex might be just what you need. This open-source archiving utility is designed to make it easy to keep track of your discs, and it comes with built-in encryption support to help keep your data secure.
One of the best things about dvdindex is that it's released under the GPL, which means you're free to use, modify, and distribute the software however you like. To get started, you'll need to make sure you have the right dependencies installed. Specifically, you'll need Qt (version 3.3 or higher) and taglib (for the mp3-plugin) on your system.
Once you've got your dependencies sorted out, installation is a breeze. Just run 'qmake' and then 'make', and you'll be up and running in no time. To complete the installation, you can either execute './install.sh' or simply copy the 'bin/dvdindex' file to a directory that's included in your $PATH environment variable.
If you want to take advantage of the mp3-plugin, you'll need to copy 'libmp3.so' to a directory of your choice and then select it from the "Settings" dialog within dvdindex.
This latest release of dvdindex includes a number of improvements and bug fixes. For example, the software now includes a plugin interface for collecting information about scanned files, and the layout of the MainWindow has been changed to make it more user-friendly. Other changes include the removal of the ACE dependency (which wasn't available on all distros), the addition of a QThread for scanning files, and the ability to store settings like window size and position. Overall, this is a very solid archiving utility that deserves a closer look.
