Ingvilt is an easy to use Windows 10 application for managing information about your favorite TV shows, movies, and other videos. It allows you to launch your videos from inside the application, and supports features such as tagging and searching for videos.

Hey Product Hunt! Ingvilt is a project I originally started around a year ago for the purposes of managing a large list of videos that I would watch once or twice or year (primarily Chris Smoove's old COD videos 😁), as well as to keep track of TV shows and movies that I would eventually want to watch in the future. I couldn't find any simplistic applications that would allow me to easily create these large video collections, while also allowing me to keep track of unique details about each video such as what other people rated it, what fictional characters appeared in the video, and what locations the video featured (and a lot more). As a result, I decided to create my own application that would grant me the flexibility I needed while managing my video collections. This project was originally going to be a web application, but I later decided to build this as a native Windows 10 UWP application for simplicity, and so that anyone using this application would not have to worry about their personal video collection data being stored in a location where other people could potentially have access to it. All of the data in this application lives directly on your computer. This application has lots of cool features, such as being able to insert images, gifs, videos, or even website URLs, and being able to view them directly from inside the application. Users can also import or export data in JSON format, and there is also a flexible tagging system where you can create any tags you want and apply them to various data types. Additionally, there is a search mechanism that lets you easily find videos, characters, media files, or series that match specific conditions. Ingvilt also supports both light and dark mode, depending on what your setting your system uses, and some UI elements such as radio buttons and tabs also change to match your system accent color. Another cool aspect about this system is that part of it is open source! The source code for the back-end can be found on Github: https://github.com/amalik2/ingvi... With this source code, anyone who knows programming can quickly create large collections without having to use the application's UI to do it. Anyone is welcome to make pull requests to the repository as well, and changes made to this repository will likely eventually make their way into the Ingvilt application itself. If there is enough interest in it, then I also eventually plan on releasing a version of this application for Android and iOS. I hope you all find this application as useful as I do!
