Show HN: TheVideosDB, a personal IMDB/TheTVDB for your home videos. Thoughts?
- JAVagueArgument 15y agoI built something similar (in Ada O_o) when I worked at Blockbuster video 12 years ago... until today I have been amazed that IMDB haven't done this. Gratz, I will start using it when I get home :)
- kappaknight 15y agoThanks! Yeah, we were wondering the same thing - maybe this piece of pie just isn't big enough for them. We created it to solve the issues we wanted to fix and we think there are many others out there like us. http://blog.thevideosdb.com/how-thevideosdb-came-to-be/ http://blog.thevideosdb.com/how-thevideosdb-came-to-be/
- rjurney 15y agoAwwwwwww yeah!
- untog 15y agoThis is the start of a really interesting idea. People are taking more and more "home" video these days, what with smartphones being capable of HD quality stuff- but there hasn't been much of an improvement in cataloging and otherwise handling it. I can see TheVideosDB being useful in that regard.
- kappaknight 15y agoThanks! We definitely feel this could be a great complementary service to a lot of media players out there. Having properly organized home videos alongside your purchased content would certainly make the "stay at home for a movie" experience much more personal.
