Hi,

Sharing a very quick app I put together tonight using SL4A (using Python) as a possible example/tutorial.

I cataloged my full CD/DVD collection in a numbered/sequenced manner into an SQLite database using my phone. I was transferring my CDs/DVDs from their original covers to a 80 CD gizmo for safe-keeping/transport - so basically wanted to capture the which slot number i'm putting in which CD for indexing etc.

Basically uses scanBarcode() to read the barcode & then searches Google product search to find the CD. It provides an option to override the title found with your own  and takes the slot number as input from the user to store in the Sqlite Database . For the database end, I used a light Django like Object Relational Mapping framework called peewee developed by Charles Leifer. 

Regards
Srinath
