Problem
I have tons of video clips (downloaded from youtube, etc), pr0n, home videos, etc, that are unable to be properly scraped. I'd rather add them to the library than operate in video mode as I'd like to add thumbnails and other art in the future. One possible solution would be to name the files properly and then somehow batch create .NFO files that name the TITLE with the file name.
Example A (lots of random clips in one folder)
C:\YOUTUBE\Clip1.avi
C:\YOUTUBE\Clip2.mkv
Is there a batch .nfo generator that will create ..
C:\YOUTUBE\Clip1.nfo
C:\YOUTUBE\Clip2.nfo
...so that they could be added to the library? Is there a better solution?
Example B (each single scene video clip in a separate folder)
C:\NOTPORN\REALITYCZARS\CensoredVideoTitle\CensoredVideoTitle.mkv
C:\NOTPORN\REALITYCZARS\OtherCensoredVideoTitle\OtherCensoredVideoTitle.mkv
I'd like to also be able to batch create .NFOs for the above scenario.
What is the best way to go about creating .NFOs in bulk so that I can see these files in the library. Is it possible to treat them as music videos for XBMC purposes in order to keep them out of my movies and TV shows?
Maybe I'm approaching this all wrong?
