I have searched through this pages and I have seen many attempts to bring online AMC. Unluckily, many are dead links or look like dead projects. Other are only partial portings that do not look like AMC at all.
I am looking for a straight-to-web porting of AMC. I am used at the looks AMC has, with all the informations and the windows positioned as AMC does.
I have 4000 movies, so it's not a question of some dozen movies. I need my full collection searchable and accessible throught the web.
My collection is on a NAS that can handle a PHP server, if needed. But ofc everything that works is ok with me.
So, to sum it up, is there a working solution today?
Thank you!
A working system for an online AMC?
I don't think there is really a solution for now.
I may try to make something when I'll upgrade to Windows 10 on my laptop and smartphone, as then I could make a "universal app" working on both and using an online catalog, allowing viewing and basic editing.
But the problem is that some changes would have to be made in the current program to be able to use a catalog stored online. That point may be the biggest problem.
The way it currently store data isn't really fitting online storage.
If soulsnake has ideas or plans for a future version, maybe we should decide of what storage system would be useable for both the "classic" AMC version and other more modern apps.

what about Dropbox?
I am already keeping my AMC collection on Dropbox, so I can edit it on all my computers at once.
Being Dropbox files sharable it should not be a problem using all its files both for editing and consultation. Am I wrong, or all data can be put in a single xml + images (in a subfolder) and just keep using that single xml instead of the amc files?
