Is there nothing simpler?
Media Elch is possibly slightly less daunting them Ember, but both aren't really as complicated as they look.
One of the reasons they have so many settings is that XBMC / Kodi over the years has allowed for many naming conventions for the NFO and artwork files, which means you have to configure how you want the NFO to be named.
For instance, you may have this structure:
My Movies\
My Movies\Star Wars.mp4
My Movies\Star Wars.nfo
Or you may have this structure
My Movies\
My Movies\Star Wars\Star Wars.mp4
My Movies\Star Wars\movie.nfo
Or this
My Movies\
My Movies\Star Wars\Star Wars.mp4
My Movies\Star Wars\Star Wars.nfo
So, you need to configure the programs for your structure.
My recommendation:
1) Install Media Elch
2) Set up some test movies / tv shows (rather than your full collection)
3) Spend 30 minutes learning about Media Elch
4) Media Elch will 'find' your media (once configured) and you can use it to scrape the info from online sources, or just manually enter it yourself.
It's really simple once you know how to use the tool.
