Hello guys! I'm currently developping a Windows 8 app with you api. This app will allow user to manage his personal collection of movies. I want to add a feature that allows the user to scan a barcode from his DVD/Bluray and add the movie to his collection. For example : When I scan the DVD Fight Club, I got the string "024543044789".
I would like to have the title of my movie from that barcode.
Do you know how I can do that? I think there is nothing in this API that can help me, but if you have another way to do it, it would be great!
(Sorry for my poor English, I'm from Belgium :) )

Hi azzedinehassaini,
Unfortunately we do not maintain any barcode data so there's nothing on TMDb that can really help you. I think that maybe, Amazon has something like this but I am honestly not sure.

Are there any plans to add barcode(s) to to a particular movie id in TMDB? I have heard a few of my friends mention different apps (Android, iOS, and web) that they want to create that could leverage a barcode field.
Thanks for the help,
Alex

Hi Alex,
No, we do not have any plans for this.

Dang, I'm needing the same functionality for a personal learning application using a UPC scanner.

this can easily be achieved my cross referencing the Amazon API to pick up UPC codes. it would return movie data.Issue is correlating the movie data with the data on tmdb. maybe doing a query on the title and primary_release_year would be accurate enough.
