My profile has over 1300 DVD and I just found a DVD in my collection that isn't in the profile. It looks like I forgot to add the DVD when I got it long ago.  So here's my question: is there an easy way to check and quickly add missing DVD without having to print out a list of 1300 DVDs?

Confused. If you didn't enter a profile how could the program tell you it was missing. I think the only thing you can is by doing an inventory against the program.

I believe there's a plug-in written for this, called DVD Inventory, but I think you're going to have to be able to scan barcodes to make it quick and easy.  I haven't used it myself, but I'm sure someone around here has tried it out.

Here it is. As Scott says if you have a barcode scanner it's quite easy to work with.

I agree, I've used it and it's easy to work with. It also helps find bad upc codes which is nice if you've ever found a profile by title only.

Or an Android-Smartphone, there is an app named "barcode2file" which, as the name suggests, reads UPC and stores them in a plain-text-file. Thankfully such a file can be loaded by DJ Doena's fine program.
If you have an iPhone I would think/guess/hope that there is a similar app available.

Yes, it's called DVD Profiler for iOS 
Simply scan the barcode and DVDP will show the profile (or add the DVD to your collection if there is no profile).
