GCStar is a cataloging/collection management application. It is an open-source project that currently works on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X platforms. GCStar allows you to manage your collections of books, movies, series episodes, and many others. The input of data is carried out very easily. You can add movies by simply typing their names. Then you can fetch information about those movies from an array of different information sources, like IMDB, CulturaliaNET, MovieDB, etc. When you fetch information, you will get the most important aspects about a movie. The year, cast, genre, director, length, country is the data grabbed by default. GCstar's main window consists of a list of movies (or any of the other supported elements) on the left, and the information about the selected movie on the right. The application also has support for borrowed items, you can track those items so you don't forget who had them and when you lent them. Besides the fact that GCstar is a true multi-platform application, there is something else that makes it an ideal platform to keep your collections in the place: its importing and exporting functionality. GCStar can import movies from several different kinds of databases and it can even import a text file with the names of the movies that you want to import.
