Does anybody know of a size limitation? Right now I have 500 movies in my database. I was wondering if there is a point when I would not be able to add new movies because of the fact that I reached some kind of a limit.
Just curious.

There is not really a size limit, but as whole catalog is loaded into memory, the size of the file may cause problem at some point.
e.g. if you have 512 MB of memory on your PC, you may notice problems with a catalog of more than 200 MB as usually there isn't much more memory available than that. I'd say that if your catalog is more than 100 MB it may be worth considering the use of external pictures (rather than storing them in catalog).
The number of movies is limited to 2147483647 (due to the maximal value of a signed integer number) but I did not test the program with more than few thousands of entries
