For example, if I have the movie "Rango", it doesn't seem like any of the programs will automatically put it into
/Movies/R/Rango (2011)/Rango.the.original.filename.mkv
Is... this the case? So you still have to SORT media yourself?
What if, for example, I had that last folder as "Rango (2010)" - would any report that as an invalid movie or anything...?
I'm not home right now to check, but I think there's an option in either Ember (Revisited) or XMM2 that will put them into the folder for you... they wouldn't do the first initial like you have above... but you could drop the file "Rango.the.original.filename.mkv" into /Movies/ and they would move it to /Movies/Rango (2011)/Rango (2011).mkv matching file and folder names automatically....
As far as putting "Rango (2010)" by mistake, the program will either not find the movie initially (until you select the correct year) or it will be added as "Rango (2011)" even being marked wrong (wont auto change the name in most cases).
In either case, I've noticed you post in (or at least show interest) in programs like CouchPotato and that will take care of all of it for you, including getting most (if not all) required meta data and is usually pretty accurate.
I assume you're using the movies initial for a sub-directory in /Movies/ to help keep the list 'small' however it can cause some extra 'pain' while trying to automate things, so if possible you'd probably be better off getting rid of that: (so /Movies/Rango (2011)/ etc. instead of /Movies/
R/Rango (2011)/)
If you're using Windows and send me a PM I can try to point out some guides (or write some if needed) to help you out with your organization/apps/etc.
