News: all updates for our software and apps
Hi there,
This is Alwin Hoogerdijk, you know, the CLZ dude, with the June Newsletter.
At the end of last month’s newsletter, I hinted at two big new projects:
One new product, worked on by Pim, AJ and me, the other a huge update to an
existing product, created by Robbert, Ronald, Martin, Rowdy, Alain and Sven.
I am happy that today I can disclose both. But only just the basics. The full
story on both projects will be revealed in their respective Preview Clubs.
Also in this newsletter:
– New in the Collectorz.com shop: Quantity and Bundle discounts
Let’s start with the big update, which is:
Movie Collector V8 for Windows : ETA July 12
Movie Collector 7 already introduced a lot of new features,
so what can Movie Collector 8 possibly add to that?
Well, for Movie Collector V8, we went back to the core of the program:
the automatic data retrieval features in the Add Movies Automatically screen.
V8 will automatically download more & better data, for both movies & TV series.
(the results of the recent online database survey were a great help here)
Plus, we added a new feature that advanced users have been asking for, something
that gives you even more options to tweak the program to your own liking.
Full details will be revealed to the members of the V8 Preview Club.
Use this form to join the V8 club:
V8 Club members get instant access to the V8 Preview Page,
which already includes a couple of teaser screen shots.
Okay, on to the new product:
CLZ Barry – wireless barcode scanner for iPhone and Android
As you know, we offer 3 different barcode scanners in our shop.
But, within a month, we will offer a 4th low cost, high value alternative:
The CLZ Barry wireless barcode scanner app for iPhone and Android.
Scan barcodes with your phone’s camera and beam them to your PC or Mac.
The CLZ Barry system includes:
- the CLZ Barry mobile apps for iPhone and Android
- the “Buddy for Barry” programs for Windows and Mac OS X
- the CLZBarry.net communication server
Are you interested in using your phone as an actual barcode scanner?

New in the Collectorz.com shop: Quantity and Bundle discounts
2 questions we were getting more and more often:
- How can I buy multiple licenses or barcode scanners in one go?
- Can I get extra discount if I buy Movie and Book Collector at the same time?
Not anymore. As of yesterday, our Collectorz.com shop has built-in and
automatically applied Quantity and Bundle discounts.
The full story can be found in this blog post.
That’s the news for today. You’ll hear from me soon in the Preview Clubs.
