Since DVD Profile is basically dead in the water, does anyone know of another catalog program that uses Profiler's database? I currently have over 2400 DVDs cataloged in DVD Profiler and I hate the idea of re-entering all my DVDs.

Here's where I went when Profiler would no longer work. It will import your data from Profiler.

There are no programs that can access Invelos' online database, if that's what you mean.
There are some programs that can import data from your collection, but none of them do it 100% perfectly.

The question that you need to ask yourself is why you want to go to another program at this time. The online database is still supported by Invelos, although fewer users update it. The desktop program works fine. There are a few minor bugs, but nothing that prevents you from using it.

If there is some feature that DVD Profiler lacks that some other program has, and it's something you really feel that you need, then that may be a valid reason to migrate. If not, then you can stay with DVD Profiler as long as it works, and you can always migrate at a later date.

The two alternatives that looks most promising (to me) is Collectorz that GeneInOrlando mentioned, and MyMovies.
But personally I'm sticking with DVD Profiler as long as I can.
